Construction site crash

 

truck

On Sept 21, 2015 at 10:42 PM Drumheller RCMP received a call about a truck that was speeding and became involved in an accident at a construction site along Railway Avenue East. When members arrived they found the truck without any occupants inside.  The truck had been traveling westbound on a service road between Railway Avenue East and where the railroad tracks used to be (the area where railroad ties are being collected).   The truck hit a dirt hill, then a generator and came to a stop against construction machinery. RCMP interviewed witnesses and were able to identify the driver, who turned himself into the RCMP a short time later, and a passenger.  There were no injuries as a result of the accident. A 19 year old male has been charged under the Traffic Safety Act for failing to remain at the scene of an accident and is set to appear in court on November 13, 2015 at 10:00 AM in Drumheller.
