Scene of five vehicle collision on Highway 10 near PR 25.
RCMP investigators and emergency services attended the scene of a five vehicle collision that occurred in a construction zone on Highway 10 near PR 25 just before 8:30am this morning.
Initial investigation indicates that there was a line of vehicles stopped by a flag person at a marked construction zone waiting for a pilot vehicle. A southbound SUV failed to stop and ran into the last vehicle, causing a chain reaction collision. A total of five vehicles were involved.
RCMP report that there was one person in each vehicle, all adults. Two adults were transported to hospital for treatment of undetermined injuries. All others were treated at the scene.
