Prince George, B.C.- RCMP  confirm that the man who died in a crash on the Finlay Forest Service road  yesterday, was from Penticton.

The crash between his pick up truck and a  logging truck  happened  just before 1 yesterday afternoon at the 93 kilometer marker of the Finlay Forest Service Road.   The 43 year old  from Penticton was pronounced dead at the scene.  Police say the man had been working in the Fort Ware region.

Mackenzie RCMP and the North District Traffic Analyst continue to investigate but  preliminary information suggests the vehicles met on a narrow, single lane, bridge and the pick-up truck collided with a concrete  post then hit the trailer of the logging truck causing significant damage to the passenger compartment of his pick-up. Damage to the logging truck was minimal.

Investigators advise there is nothing to suggest the incident is a Criminal matter.
