A 24 year old male, from Souris, was driving north on Highway 13 when he turned left onto Highway 2, but was struck by an eastbound vehicle. The male had entered the intersection when it was unsafe to do so.
The other driver, a 55 year old female from Winnipeg, suffered minor injuries.

Correction - a previous story regarding this incident incorrectly reported a semi was involved in the collision, and that more serious injuries had been sustained. PembinaValleyOnline apologizes for those errors.
