Killam RCMP members respond to fatal motor vehicle collision near Strome

On Oct. 17, 2025, around 12 p.m., Killam/Forestburg RCMP were dispatched to a single vehicle rollover on Highway 13, between Range Roads 144 and 145, just East of Strome.

A detour was established while units responded and conducted their investigation. Initial investigation suggests that a semi, that was hauling a flatbed trailer with a skidsteer on it, veered off the highway into the South ditch and rolled over.

The single male occupant, a 71-year-old Wetaskiwin, Alta., resident, was found outside the vehicle, unconscious, by EMS and was later pronounced deceased.

Alberta RCMP sends their condolences to the family and friends of the deceased.
