Icy conditions on Highway One created a chaotic situation for motorists and first responders as a multi-vehicle collision unfolded in the early morning hours yesterday.
At approximately 7:30 a.m. the Moose Jaw RCMP responded to reports of a vehicle in the ditch near the Belle Plaine bridge just west of the village. While attending the initial call, officers received subsequent reports of a collision in the same location.
The officer's investigation found that a vehicle had slid off the road into the ditch, and a second vehicle arrived at the scene and parked on the shoulder to assist. Shortly after, a third vehicle stuck the vehicle parked on the side of the highway.
The passenger in the parked car reported non-life-threatening injuries to officers but was ultimately taken to the hospital for further assessment.
