Headingley RCMP are investigating a serious two-vehicle collision that left five people injured on Highway 3, just south of Sanford, on the evening of May 1.
Police, along with fire and emergency medical services, were called to the scene around 9:30 p.m. after reports of a head-on crash. Investigators say a northbound vehicle had been swerving across the roadway prior to colliding with a southbound vehicle.
A 52-year-old man driving the southbound vehicle sustained minor, non-life-threatening injuries. His two passengers, both 14-year-old girls, suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries and remain in hospital.
The occupants of the northbound vehicle — a 25-year-old man from St. Adolphe and a 19-year-old male passenger — were transported to hospital in critical condition, where they remain.
Headingley RCMP, along with a forensic collision reconstructionist and members of the RCMP Traffic Services criminal collision investigation team, continue to investigate the incident.
