Pedestrian dead after being hit by SUV in Colchester County

A Truro man has died after being hit by an SUV in Earltown.

According to RCMP, emergency services responded to a report of a collision in the 1-100 block of Hwy. 326 just before 11 p.m. on June 18. When they arrived they learned a man on the roadway was struck by a Ford Edge.

The 60-year-old man was pronounced dead at the scene.

The driver was a 29-year-old woman from Debert, and neither her nor her 19-year-old passenger were hurt.

RCMP say the highway was closed for several hours, but has since reopened.

The investigation is still ongoing with support from the Nova Scotia Medical Examiner Service.

    From his time on The Globe and Mail's sports desk to the freelance work done for community papers like The Sandy Hill Image or Merritt Herald, he believes that news should serve the public what they need to know.

    Although he was born in Ontario, Tyler's family is originally from Lower Sackville, and he has spent many summers visiting family all across Nova Scotia.

    At home, Tyler likes to fish, nerd out playing TTRPG's, get some fresh air with his Newfoundland dog Harvey, and play some truly terrible (but improving!) golf.
