Two Winnipeg seniors have died in traffic incidents over the weekend, RCMP said.
On Friday afternoon, a three-vehicle crash took place on Highway 3 near Road 15N in the RM of Stanley.
Police said a southbound semi trailer collided with a northbound semi, which in turn crashed into an SUV. Both the northbound semi and the SUV ended up in the ditch and on fire.
The driver of the SUV, 65, was killed, and his 63-year-old passenger was taken to hospital where she was treated for non-life threatening injuries.
