Police hope to identify the owner of a pickup truck that may have been travelling in the area of a fatal pedestrian collision that occurred shortly after 9 p.m. on Jan. 20 near Bruce Mines.
All lanes of Highway 17 between Desbarats and Bruce Mines were closed following the crash and 36-year-old Alicia Faulkner of Sault Ste. Marie was pronounced deceased at the scene.
The pickup is believed to be a 2016 to 2018 red Chevrolet Silverado (possibly crew or double cab) with a black, red, and white snowmobile in the bed (possibly a Polaris Indy), says a news release issued by East Algoma OPP.
The driver of the vehicle in question is described as a stocky man wearing a blue long-sleeved shirt.
