Police would not identify the deceased victim because they are trying to notify his next of kin. However, they did say he was an adult male resident of the city.

The cause of the crash, which occurred around 9:30 p.m. on Palmer Road near the intersection of Sunnybrook Road, is under investigation, and no arrests had been made, police said.
