A rollover crash in northern Saskatchewan has claimed the life of a 21-year-old man.
It happened on Highway 955, three kilometres north of La Loche, just before 10 p.m. CST Tuesday night.
Four men from La Loche were in a Chevy Cavalier when it left the road and rolled in the ditch.
One passenger who had been sitting behind the driver died at the scene. Two others were airlifted to hospital in Saskatoon and the fourth was treated and released with minor injuries.
It's believed speed and alcohol were factors in the crash, the RCMP said.
Police haven't released any names.
