On September 10, 2025, at 2:05 pm, Selkirk RCMP received a report of an erratic driver travelling north on Highway 9 in the Rural Municipality of St Andrews.
At 2:50 pm, Gimli RCMP responded to a serious motor vehicle collision on Highway 8 at Highway 229, in the Rural Municipality of Gimli.
An SUV was travelling west on Highway 229 and crossed the intersection with Highway 8 without stopping at the mandatory stop sign. The SUV collided with a semi-truck that was travelling south on Highway 8.
The semi-truck rolled onto its side in the west ditch. The SUV stopped in the middle of the road in the northbound lane of Highway 8.
It was determined that this SUV was the same vehicle described as driving erratically shortly before.
The driver, a 31-year-old male from The Pas, was transported to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries. The driver of the semi-truck was not physically injured.
Gimli RCMP, along with a Forensic Collision Reconstructionist, continue to investigate
