Fatal Collisions

Multiple fatal collisions across Alberta Wednesday

Dec 5, 2019 | 7:53 AM

Separate road accidents in Alberta have left three people dead and four others injured.

RCMP say two people, both females, died when their eastbound sport-utility vehicle collided with a westbound SUV Wednesday afternoon on Highway 11, west of Red Deer.

Two people in the second vehicle were taken to hospital, while the driver of a car that struck the two SUVs was treated at the scene.

Mounties say icy road conditions were a factor in the accident.

In Calgary, police are still investigating a southeast-area collision early Wednesday evening that killed a 46-year-old man.

Investigators say his SUV crossed the centre line and collided with a pickup truck, resulting in non-life-threatening injuries to a man who was the lone occupant of the second vehicle.
