RCMP say a 22-year-old man died in a single vehicle accident on Sunday about four kilometres west of Grand Coulee.

White Butte RCMP responded to a report of a vehicle that was submerged in a creek off a gravel road at around 9:30 a.m. on Sunday.

Once the vehicle was located by emergency responders, the man, who was the lone occupant of the vehicle, was pronounced dead. His body was found inside the vehicle.

Police say his name will not be released.

An investigation into the cause of the collision is active. An autopsy has been ordered and will take place in the coming days.
