Calgary man killed in crash near High River, Alta.

Alberta RCMP are investigating a fatal crash on Highway 2A south of Calgary that closed a section of the highway on Friday.
The crash was between a semi-truck and a vehicle and happened near the entrance to Cargil Foods, about 10 kilometres north of High River, Alta., at around 7:30 a.m.
A 52-year-old Calgary man, the driver of the vehicle, was pronounced dead at the scene.

The driver of the semi-trailer wasn't injured.
The collision closed a section of Highway 2A between 434 Avenue east and Highway 543 east for about six hours.
