RCMP in Golden say an unidentified man died at about 7:30 Tuesday morning when a car stolen in Calgary crossed the centre line and slammed head-on into an oncoming tractor-trailer just west of the Alberta boundary.
The driver of the truck was not hurt and the causes of both crashes remain under investigation. (The Canadian Press, CHNL)
