A man died as a result of injuries sustained in a crash Tuesday evening in Great Falls, police said. 

The two-car crash occurred around 5:00 p.m. in the 700 block of Walker Road, directly in front of Great Falls Elementary School. The victim, who died at the scene, was identified by county police as Billy White, 64.

A preliminary investigation determined that White’s Ford F350 was traveling eastbound on Walker Road when it crossed over the double yellow line, left the roadway and struck a Dodge Ram that tried to avoid the crash. It then struck a utility pole and overturned back onto the roadway. The driver of the Dodge Ram was taken to a hospital for injuries that were not life threatening.

County police said in a statement that while “alcohol is not believed to be a factor, detectives are investigating whether speed or a possible medical emergency may have contributed to the crash.”

The accident remains under investigation.
