SAINT-ALEXIS – A collision between a vehicle and a moose has been a victim, Monday at 22: 45 on the rang Saint-Benoit, Saint-Alexis, near Matapédia, in the Gaspé peninsula.
Two men, the driver, a 35 year old man, and passenger, 23-year-old were in the vehicle travelling eastbound when it collided with the moose.
The emergency services were called to attend the scene. The victim was already unconscious when the paramedics arrived. “His death was recorded in the hospital of Amqui,” says Claude Doiron, a spokesperson for the Sûreté du Québec.
