Editor’s note: This story has been updated to reflect new information from RCMP that the collision did not involve a fatality as originally stated.
Police in northern Alberta are investigating a collision on a rural highway east of Grande Prairie.
RCMP said the collision between a grader and a pickup truck happened around 1 p.m. Thursday on Highway 676 east of Range Road 260.
Police said the highway was closed in both directions to allow emergency personnel to respond.
RCMP originally said the collision involved a fatality. However, later issued an update on Friday to say no one died although serious injuries did occur.
“The injured were transported to the hospital by STARS,” RCMP said in a news release.
The RCMP did not say how many people were injured.
The highway has since reopened.
An RCMP collision analyst is helping with the investigation.
