An 84-year-old driver has died after his pickup truck crashed into the back of the Mexican Consulate in Leamington.

Provincial police say Ronald Graham, of Leamington, died of his injuries sustained in the single vehicle crash.

It happened just before 5:30 p.m. at the Consulate which is located in the 300 block of Highway 77.

Police say a black Dodge pickup truck was travelling westbound on Essex Round 33 when it left the roadway and travelled through a bean field before hitting the back wall of the Consulate.

Graham was the only person in the truck. He was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries.

Police say no one was inside the Consulate at the time of the collision.

The cause of the crash is under investigation.
