A 23-year-old Winnipeg man was transported by STARS air ambulance to Winnipeg’s Health Sciences Centre after a single vehicle rollover on the Trans-Canada Highway early Monday morning.
Emergency crews responded to the report of the crash which occurred at Road 39E, just east of the turnoff to Paradise Village.
Police said in a release that it appears the driver of the vehicle fell asleep, which resulted in the truck being driven into the median ditch and rolling several times.
Police said the injured man, a passenger in the vehicle, is “reported to be in stable condition with critical injuries.”
The driver of the vehicle and a female passenger, both from the Kenora area, sustained minor injuries and went to Ste Anne Hospital for observation.
Alcohol was not a factor in the collision, police said.
