At approximately 6:18 a.m., Parkland RCMP were dispatched to a collision between a motorcycle and pickup truck at Highway 627 between Range Road 273 and 274.
Upon arrival, it was determined that the motorcyclist, a 69-year-old male resident of Edmonton, was deceased.

A 21-year-old woman also died in a crash in Strathcona County early Thursday morning.

The 21-year-old woman driving, a 21-year-old female passenger, and a boy whose age was not disclosed rescued themselves and called 911, reporting that they could not find the fourth person in their group.
