A man has died in yet another fatal crash in the region.

Police have confirmed a 91-year-old Rushworth man died in a crash at Euroa on Wednesday, September 27.

The man’s white HiLux ute crashed into a tree on the Euroa-Shepparton Rd just after 3.30pm.

Police said the ute was travelling north-west on the road before it crossed onto the wrong side and into trees on the roadside verge north-west of Boundary Rd.

The man, who was the only occupant of the vehicle, died at the scene.

Police investigations into the crash are continuing.

A report will be prepared for the coroner about the crash.

The man’s death is the 36th from 27 crashes on the region’s roads since New Year’s Eve.
