On June 14, 2015, at approximately 12:15pm, St-Pierre-Jolys RCMP were conducting a traffic stop southbound on Highway 59, two kilometres north of St-Pierre-Jolys, Manitoba.

Police say that a southbound vehicle attempted to go around the vehicles on the side of the road and collided head-on with a northbound vehicle, which started on fire. RCMP officers were able to extract all drivers and occupants of the vehicles. Three of the individuals were transported to Winnipeg hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

RCMP report that the three occupants in the vehicle involved in the traffic stop and the RCMP officers were uninjured.
