A Calgary man was killed early Sunday morning coming home from the High River rodeo dance. The 25-year-old man had done all the right things, calling a pair of friends to pick him up after the dance. Just south of the Okotoks overpass the driver swerved to miss a deer and the vehicle rolled. The deceased was wearing his seat belt while his friends were thrown from the vehicle. They were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Alcohol was not a factor and RCMP stress it's usually safer to be restrained during a rollover. The man's name has not been released. |
