A deadly accident crippled morning traffic along Decarie Wednesday morning.
Around 5:35 a pickup truck driven by a 60 year old man, heading west on Jean Talon turned north onto the Decarie service road - striking a woman at the intersection.
The woman, in her 30s was pronounced dead in hospital.
"He had been seen by Urgence Sante for nervous shock but he refused transport to hospital" said police spokesperson Benoit Boiselle. "He's collaborating with police officers, for now alcohol is not involved in that collision."
The Decarie north service road was closed for most of the morning, including the Jean talon exit from the Decarie north - posing a challenge for commuters in the Cotes Des Nieges commercial area near Namur metro.
