One driver is dead following an overnight collision near Nanaimo Airport last night.
Shortly after 10:30 p.m. on October 21, Ladysmith RCMP were called to the southbound lanes of the Trans-Canada Highway just south of Aqua Terra Road.
Upon arrival, life saving measures were applied to a 19-year-old driver of a Nissan 350Z, but unfortunately passed away at the scene.
The highway remained closed for several hours last night to allow investigators to inspect the scene.
