On July 13, 2014, shortly after 4pm, Carman Area RCMP responded to a report of a single-vehicle collision on Road 11 West in the RM of Rhineland, Manitoba, approximately 11 km west of Altona, Manitoba.
Initial police investigation shows a car was traveling southbound on Road 11 West, when it lost control, entered the east ditch and rolled, striking the base of a tree. The 20-year-old female driver from Gretna, Manitoba, suffered serious injuries and was transported to Altona hospital where she was stabilized and then taken to Winnipeg hospital.
