A young visitor to Cochrane has been killed by a car.
OPP Constable Stéphanie Bélec says the collision happened at about 2:30am on Highway 11, just west of Cochrane.
“It was determined that Kelsey Strang, a 16-year-old from Pikangikum First Nation had been involved in the collision and she was pronounced deceased at the scene,” Bélec says, adding
“It was close to town. It was, I would say, just west of town and the motor vehicle was headed eastbound towards Cochrane.”
