The driver of a pickup truck was killed Sunday night in a two-vehicle collision on Highway 16, east of Prince George.
Police, who were called to the scene about 15 kilometres outside city limits at 8:45 p.m., said he may have failed to stop before proceeding onto the highway from Geddes Road and was struck by another pickup truck traveling on the highway.
The victim's name was not released. A passenger in his vehicle suffered serious but non life-threatening injuries while the three occupants of the other pickup received minor injuries.
"Road and weather conditions were described as good at the time and alcohol has not been ruled out as a possible contributing factor to this collision," RCMP said.
The stretch was closed for several hours while investigators gathered evidence. Anyone with information regarding the collision who has not already spoken with police is asked to contact Prince George regional traffic services at 250-649-4004.
