St Pierre RCMP attended a two-vehicle crash early Monday morning on Highway 59 which sent four people to hospital.
An investigation continues into the crash which occurred around 3 a.m. near Carriere Road.
Police said a southbound pickup was stationary on the highway when it was rear-ended by a southbound SUV.
The 24-year-old male driver and lone occupant of the pickup truck, from Alberta, was transported to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The 16-year-old male driver of the SUV and a 16-year-old male passenger, both from Ile des Chenes and another 16-year-old male passenger from St. Adolphe were transported to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
Alcohol is considered a factor in the collision. Due to fog in the area, visibility was reduced and is also considered a factor.
