Airdrie RCMP has closed an intersection in the city while they conduct an investigation.  

RCMP and Airdrie Fire were called out at around 2:45 am and blocked off the intersection of Cooper's Crossing Gate and Cooper's Drive.  An RCMP Media Release now says that intersection is impassable while the investigation occurs. 

An RCMP Collision Reconstructionist is assisting in the investigation.  

Reports from a witness say the K-9 unit was also called to the scene.

The roadway is expected to remain impassable for several hours and motorists are asked to take an alternate route.

RCMP say an update will be provided when the roadway re-opens later today.
