Man involved in overpass crash on Deerfoot dies; police seek info and footage

Calgary police say an individual involved in an Aug. 17 collision on Deerfoot Trail S.E. at Seton Boulevard has died.

The deceased is a man in his 50s.

The incident happened just before 1:30 p.m.

According to police, the man was operating a 2010 Cobra, heading south along Deerfoot when the lanes reduced due to road construction near the Seton overpass.

He took to the right shoulder of Deerfoot, police say, then struck a road construction sign and a cable fence.

He was ejected, police say, and critically injured as a result.

After being transported to hospital, the man died.

Police are still looking for witness information about this incident, or dash-cam footage of it.

Anyone who can help is asked to call police at 403-266-1234 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
