Fatal collision under investigation

We are investigating a fatal collision that occurred just after 2 p.m. on Tuesday, Feb. 10, 2026.

A 1997 Ford Escort was being driven west on 16 Avenue N.E. in the left-hand lane.

As the vehicle approached Stony Trail N.E., the driver exited the road, entered the median and then collided with a concrete pier.

The driver, a man in his 20s, died at the scene.

Drugs and alcohol do not appear to be factors in this collision though excessive speed is being investigated.

We continue to work with our partners at The City of Calgary to implement the Safer Mobility Plan with the common goal of Vision Zero – mobility free of fatalities and major injuries.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to contact police by calling 403-266-1234. Tips can also be submitted anonymously to Crime Stoppers through any of the following methods:
