One woman is dead, after a car ran into a truck on Highway 27 near Major Mackenzie

Police say a vehicle carrying 3 adults was travelling southbound on 27, when for an unknown reason, it crossed over the centre median, into the path of an oncoming truck.

All three adults were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.  However, police say while in hospital, the condition of one of the women worsened, and she later died.

Police say at least two of the people inside the car were 'elderly,' but are not speculating as to why the car may have swerved into oncoming traffic.
