RCMP are reporting a young boy died Friday on a farm site near Beausejour.

At 12:15 pm, officers from the Oakbank RCMP received a report of an unresponsive 10-year-old, on a farm approximately six kilometres south of Beausejour.

It is believed the young boy was attempting to load a garden tractor into the back of a pickup truck when it slid off the ramp and pinned him to the ground.

Medical assistance was provided to the child, who was later pronounced dead on scene.

Oakbank RCMP continue to investigate.
