Rollover leaves one dead, another injured in South Glengarry: OPP [Video]

A single-vehicle rollover Friday afternoon left one person dead and another injured in South Glengarry Township, according to the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP).

Police received a call at 3:40 p.m. reporting a rollover involving a cargo-type van leaving a vehicle in a ditch on the road, on Glen Road near Glen Brook Road.

Upon arrival, police found two injured people. A trapped occupant in the car was extricated by firefighters then airlifted to Ottawa Civic Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, the OPP said in a statement to CTV News Ottawa on Saturday.

The victim was identified as a 31-year-old man from South Glengarry Township.

The 36-year-old driver from Clarence-Rockland received non-life-threatening injuries and was airlifted to hospital by Air Ornge.  

“Long Sault OPP, assisted by Technical Collision Investigator (OPP) and Reconstructionist (OPP) conducted an investigation that closed the roadway for approximately eight hours,” the OPP said in the statement.

The road have since been re-opened.
