One person was killed in a two-vehicle collision on the Trans-Canada Highway near Sicamous on Saturday evening, the RCMP said.

Police were called to the site near Old Spallumcheen Road around 7:40 p.m.

Mounties said it appears an eastbound pickup truck crossed into the path of another westbound pickup truck.

The driver of the eastbound truck, a 52-year-old Alberta man, was taken to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

The driver of the westbound truck, a 48-year-old Kamloops man, died at the scene.

The crash closed the highway in both directions for hours overnight, but the road has since reopened.
