OPP release the Names of Two People Killed on local highways

The OPP have released the names of two people killed in two separate accidents in the Kenora area.

40 year old Colin Duguay of Kenora has been identified as the lone occupant of a Pontiac Montana that crashed into a rock cut on Highway 17 east of Kenora early yesterday morning.

Police say the vehicle caught fire, and Duguay was transported to hospital in Kenora, but succumbed to his injuries.

The other accident took place yesterday morning around 6:30 on Highway 71 in Sioux Narrows.

The OPP say an 18 year old Thunder Bay man lost control of a Suzuki passenger vehicle.

The car rolled several times and came to rest in a ditch on the west side of the road.

The driver was the lone occupant and was ejected from the vehicle.

Nicholas Corrigan was pronounced dead at the scene.
