A 68-year-old Dauphin woman has died following a two-vehicle crash on Highway 276.
Manitoba RCMP say the collision happened Monday morning south of Rorketon, in the RM of Lakeshore.
According to police, a pickup truck travelling north rear-ended a semi-trailer truck going in the same direction.
The driver and lone occupant of the pickup truck was pronounced deceased on scene.
The 54-year-old Newdale man driving the semi sustained minor injuries.
Road conditions and poor visibility appear to be factors in the collision.
Ste. Rose du Lac RCMP continue to investigate.
