There has been another tragic, fatal crash on Highway 17 in northeastern Ontario.

Deborah Flynn, a 54-year-old woman from North Bay, was killed in a serious, two-vehicle crash west of Markstay-Warren Thursday afternoon, Ontario Provincial Police said in a news release.

It happened about 4:50 p.m. east of Sudbury.

The highway was closed until around 11 p.m.

An investigation into the collision is continuing and OPP technical investigators have been called to help.

No word on the cause, if anyone else sustained any injuries or if there are any charges pending.

Coincidentally, a psychology professor at Nipissing University has the same name as the victim. She told CTV News she has been flooded with messages and wants people to know it is not her.
