One of two people killed on an icy highway in northern Alberta was an armoured car guard.

RCMP say a G4S armoured vehicle collided head-on with a pickup truck Tuesday on Highway 63 south of Fort McMurray.

Cst. Natasha Lytwenko says the driver of the pickup was also killed.

A second security guard inside the armoured vehicle was not injured.

Three G4S guards were shot and killed by a fellow crew member in 2012, as they were reloading ATM machines at the University of Alberta.
