Police are releasing a photo of a commercial tractor trailer as part of an ongoing investigation into a fatal collision on the Trans-Canada Highway two years ago.

The investigation began on Sept. 21, 2021, around 5:45 AM, when Kamloops RCMP Detachment officers were called to the westbound lanes of the highway strip in Dallas, where they located a deceased man in his 20s who had been riding an e-bike with a red flashing light on the back.

“Two years ago today, Jonathan Trosky was riding his bike to work when he was tragically and fatality struck by a vehicle on the side of the highway,” said Corporal Crystal Evelyn, Kamloops RCMP spokesperson. “In recognition of the anniversary of his untimely death, we are releasing an image of a truck with the hope that someone will recognize it, the logo on its side, or recall driving it through Kamloops on the date of the collision, and contact police to help further the investigation.”

The vehicle, a white Volvo semi truck pulling an Ocean trailer, was observed at a service station near Kamloops on Sept. 21, 2021. 

Anyone with information about the vehicle or the investigation is asked to please contact the Kamloops RCMP Detachment at 250-828-3000 and reference file 2021-33187.
