A Saturday afternoon single vehicle rollover has claimed the life of a woman from the R.M. of Stuartburn.

Shortly before 2pm Morris and Emerson RCMP responded to the scene on a gravel road approximately three kilometers south of Provincial Road 201, just west of Vita. When they arrived officers located a pick-up truck in the ditch.

The initial investigation has determined the 88 year old female driver was travelling south on the gravel road when she lost control, and rolled the vehicle. The driver was ejected, and was pronounced deceased on scene.

It appears the driver was not wearing a seatbelt.  

Alcohol and speed are not considered to be factors in the rollover.

The investigation continues.
