A 23-year-old man from Winnipeg ejected from a car during a rollover near Richer Wednesday morning was pronounced dead at the scene, RCMP said.
Police received a report of the crash a kilometre east of Richer around 5:45 a.m. Their initial investigation reported that the 23-year-old was seated in the rear of the vehicle and was not wearing a seatbelt. He was ejected once the westbound car hit the ditch.
Alcohol and speed appear to be contributing factors in the crash.
The driver of the red Nissan car and another passenger were released without injury.
RCMP continues to investigate.
