A 22-year-old man is dead following a collision between two vehicles that sent a van rolling into a field while the other vehicle drove on.

RCMP from the Fort Qu'Appelle detachment of the RCMP say the crash and rollover took place around 7 a.m. CST Thursday.

It happened on a rural road south of Balcarres, a community about 90 kilometres northeast of Regina.

When emergency crews arrived they found two people were thrown from the van. Both were taken to hospital.

The passenger, a 22-year-old man, was taken to hospital in Regina but later died from his injuries.

The driver remains in hospital in Fort Qu'Appelle but is expected to be okay.

Police say their investigation of the crash led them to conclude that the van had been hit by another vehicle at an intersection of two rural roads.

The other vehicle did not remain at the scene.

However, police say they believe they have found that vehicle.

It has been seized and police say they are still investigating.
