An investigation's under way following a fatal motor vehicle accident last night on the Trans Canada Highway, not far from MacGregor.

Portage la Prairie RCMP say a pick-up truck was reported driving west on the wrong side of the road just after 8 pm. Police say a 63 year old man was behind the wheel.

It later collided with a mini-van, driven by a 29 year old man.

The Mounties say both were from MacGregor, and were wearing seatbelts.

The RCMP are looking into whether alcohol was involved.
