Police investigate fatal collision in the city’s northeast

Our Traffic Unit continues to investigate a single-vehicle collision that occurred yesterday morning in the northeast, resulting in the death of the driver. 

At approximately 9:40 a.m., on Tuesday, March 18, 2025, we responded to a single-vehicle collision in the northbound lanes of Deerfoot Trail N.E., directly beneath the Eighth Avenue N.E. overpass.

At that time, a 2008 Toyota Camry, driven by a man in his 60s, was travelling north on Deerfoot Trail N.E. when it exited the right side of the roadway, moving across the shoulder and off the road. The Toyota Camry struck some rocks, causing the vehicle to roll and eventually come to a rest on its roof on the shoulder of Deerfoot Trail. The driver was ejected from the vehicle and was declared deceased on scene. 

At this time, speed, alcohol, and drugs are not considered to be factors in the collision. The circumstances leading up to the collision remain under investigation.

Anyone who may have witnessed the collision or who may have dashcam footage of the 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:
