Four deceased after collision on Highway 986

The Peace Regional RCMP is looking for help from the public after a fatal collision that occurred on Highway 986.

According to police, on February 9th, at around 4:00 p.m., members from the Red Earth Creek RCMP detachment received reports of impaired driving on Highway 986. Police say the vehicle was leaving the area of Red Earth Creek, and was heading towards Little Buffalo.

While RCMP was actively searching for the vehicle, there was a report of a collision in the area of Highway 986 and Range Road 130A, near Marten Lake, just inside the Peace Regional RCMP’s jurisdiction.

Soon after, police from both detachments, along with members of the Red Earth Creek Fire Department, EMS, Advanced Paramedics, and STARS arrived on the scene.

The two occupants of the vehicle that police say matched the Red Earth Creek community complaints were declared deceased on the scene; however, their identities are under investigation.

The two adult occupants of the second vehicle, a 33-year-old female, and a 49-year-old female, both from Red Earth Creek, were declared deceased by EMS and STARS.

Anyone with dashcam footage, or any witnesses who have yet to speak with police is asked to contact the Peace Regional RCMP at (780)-624-6611 or anonymously through Crime Stoppers.
