Police say one dead, one critical after crash north of Winnipeg

Manitoba police report a fatal crash north of Winnipeg, claiming the life of a 22-year-old man. The incident occurred on Highway 8, approximately 50 kilometers from where four teenagers lost their lives in a separate accident in early September.

The speeding vehicle collided with a vehicle turning west, according to the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). The victim was pronounced dead at the scene, while another individual in the other vehicle suffered serious life-threatening injuries and is currently in critical condition. A passenger in the same vehicle was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

RCMP officials observed the speeding vehicle approaching the highway before the collision with the SUV. The crash took place late Thursday night.
