The Driver and Sole-Occupant Only Fatality in Side-by-Side Crash.

Cumberland County District RCMP is investigating a fatal collision that occurred in River Hebert.

On June 27, just after 9:00 a.m., Cumberland County District RCMP, along with fire, responded to a report of an ATV collision in the 1500-block of Barronsfield Rd. Officers located a Can-Am side-by-side in the ditch. The driver and sole-occupant, a 55-year-old man from River Hebert, was found deceased nearby.

Initial investigation suggests the man was ejected from the side-by-side.

The road was closed for several hours as a collision reconstructionist attended the scene. Cumberland County District RCMP continue to investigate, with the assistance of the Nova Scotia Medical Examiner Service.
