Sarnia Man Killed In Kimball Rd. Crash

A 62-year-old Sarnia man has died after a single-vehicle rollover crash Tuesday.

Lambton OPP Constable Chris Doupe says according to witnesses, a vehicle was seen travelling north on Kimball Rd. around 11:35am. He says the vehicle entered the ditch, rolled several times and struck a tree north of Lasalle Line.

Constable Doupe says the driver and lone occupant, David Meeker, was pronounced dead at hospital.

"The investigation is still ongoing," says Doupe. "We are actively seeking witnesses in relation to the incident and we're asking that if anyone has knowledge of the incident that they contact Lambton OPP as soon as possible."

The road was closed for about five hours Tuesday and reopened just before 5pm.

Sarnia Fire and Rescue and Lambton EMS also attended the scene.
