MONTREAL -- A 23-year-old has died following a car accident that left him critically injured in Napierville on Sunday night.
The man was driving along Rogel-Lamoureux St. near la monte Douglas around 9:30 p.m. when he lost control of the vehicle, causing it to flip over.
The Surete du Quebec (SQ) says the accident took place where there is a pronounced curve in the road, which has a speed limit of 50 kilometres per hour.
The man and his 27-year-old passenger were taken to hospital, the former in critical condition and the latter to be treated for minor injuries. The 23-year-old was later confirmed dead.
The SQ has opened an investigation during which the man’s car will be analyzed to indicate whether a mechanical issue played a role in the loss of control.
