Police in western New Brunswick say slippery roads may have been a factor that contributed to a fatal single-vehicle crash Wednesday night in Scotch Lake.
RCMP say the lone occupant of the vehicle, a 63-year-old man from Sringfield, N.B., died at the scene shortly after 7 p.m.

An RCMP collision reconstructionist is helping with the investigation, but the Mounties say they believe the man’s vehicle left Scotch Lake Road and struck a utility pole.
Scotch Lake is a 30-minute drive west of Fredericton.
