Several horses killed in collision with semi-trailer
Several horses were killed following a collision with a semi-trailer early this morning along Highway 4 South near Cando.
Battlefords RCMP Sgt. Neil Tremblay said the collision occurred around 2:24 a.m. on Thursday, Jan. 26.
The driver of the vehicle from Alberta was not injured, although his truck did sustain significant damage and is no longer operational. It’s not yet known how many horses were killed or whether visibility was a factor, as thick fog covered much of the region overnight.
“The investigation is continuing. We get a lot of calls from motorists saying horses and cattle are on Highway 4 both North and South. It is becoming a concern,” said Tremblay.
