Police are investigating a single vehicle crash in Moorleah last night which sadly resulted in the death of a 62-year-old man.
Shortly before midnight Emergency Services attended a single vehicle crash on Preolenna Road, around 1 kilometre south of the Pages Road intersection.
Initial investigations indicate the Grey Toyota Hilux travelled onto the incorrect side of the road and collided with a concrete fence post and tree.
The male driver and sole occupant of the vehicle died at the scene.
Investigations indicate the driver was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash, however a full investigation is being conducted and a report will be prepared for the coroner.
Our thoughts are with the man's family and friends at this difficult time.
Anyone who witnessed the crash or a Grey Toyota Hilux travelling in the area prior to the crash is asked to contact Wynyard Police on 131444.
