A roadside memorial continued to grow Friday just west of Calgary for two teens who lost their lives in a crash early Thursday morning.
The single-vehicle collision happened on Range Road 32 between Township Road 251A and Township Road 250 at around 12:30 a.m.
The area is located just east of the Springbank Airport, north of Highway 1.
Daniela Nicoletti, 16, and a friend were killed.
Daniela’s older sister, 17-year-old Giulia, survived and is in critical condition. Another teen girl remains in a coma.
All of them attended Springbank Community high school. Staff at the school opened the doors Friday to give teachers and students a place to grieve and talk.
RCMP continue to investigate the cause of the crash but say it could be at least a month before they know exactly what happened.
Anyone who may have witnessed the collision is asked to call the Cochrane RCMP at 403-851-8000. Anonymous information can be submitted to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or online.
