On May 1, 2026, at 9:30 p.m., Headingley RCMP responded to a two-vehicle head-on collision on Highway 3, just south of Sanford. 

Headingley RCMP, fire and emergency medical services attended immediately. They learned that a vehicle travelling north on Highway 3 had swerved all over the road before colliding head-on with a southbound vehicle.

In total, five people were injured as a result of the collision.

The 52-year-old male driver of the southbound vehicle was treated for minor, non-life-threatening injuries. His two 14-year-old daughters, who were passengers in the vehicle, suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries. They remain in hospital.

The two occupants of the other vehicle were transported to hospital in critical condition. The driver, a 25-year-old male from St-Adolphe, and the passenger, a 19-year-old male, remain in critical condition.  

Headingley RCMP, along with a forensic collision reconstructionist and criminal collision investigation team from RCMP Traffic Services, continue to investigate.
