47-year-old man killed in Dugald Road crash: Winnipeg police
Winnipeg police are telling people to find an alternate route this afternoon as they are investigating a fatal crash near the St. Boniface Industrial Park.
Police said crews were called at around 9:30 a.m. to Dugald Road and Bournais Drive for a two-vehicle crash.
