Provincial police are investigating after a man was killed when his pickup truck crashed north of London.

Middlesex OPP says, around 6am Friday, emergency crews were called to Eight Mile Rd. between Hyde Park Rd. and Denfield Rd. A black pickup truck going west on Eight Mile Rd. went off the road and into the ditch, where it rolled over.

The male driver was killed. OPP have identified him as Jason Derks, 30, of Middlesex Centre.

It's not known yet if weather conditions were a factor, but roads in the area were snow-covered and slippery at the time of the crash.
