Police said two trucks collided with each other before crashing into two separate buildings around 3:15 a.m.

Officers blocked off Logan Avenue from Sherbrook Street to Gunnell Street to investigate.

Winnipeg police are unsure of the events leading up to the crash as the driver of the yellow truck is not cooperating with police. The driver of the red truck said he noticed the yellow vehicle was proceeding very slowly so he passed it before coming to a stop at the red light.
