A 63-year-old man is dead after a crash involving a car and a tractor in western Manitoba Sunday evening.

The two vehicles were travelling north on Highway 83 near 139 Road North in Roblin, Man., when the car hit the back of an open-cab style farm tractor. The tractor then rolled over, and the driver was pronounced dead at the scene, RCMP said.

The 48-year-old driver of the other vehicle had minor injuries and was released from hospital that evening.

RCMP have not determined the contributing factor of the crash, but a traffic analyst is investigating.
