Police Investigate Fatal Truck Crash At Kempton

Police are investigating a truck crash on the Midland Highway this afternoon where a man sadly died.

About 2.45pm, emergency services responded to reports of a single truck crash about seven kilometres north of Kempton, where a semi-trailer prime mover which was carrying frozen food had rolled.

The driver of the truck – a man in his 60s – was provided medical assistance but sadly died at the scene.

The Midland Highway remains closed to north-bound traffic while a crash investigation is being conducted at the scene.

Our thoughts and condolences are with the family and loved ones of the man.

A report will be prepared for the Coroner.
