Brooks RCMP report that man and woman from Medicine Hat and another man from Redcliff were killed Friday when their car crashed head on into a pickup truck near Tilley.

The crash occurred shortly before 5 p.m. that day near Township Road 164 on the Trans-Canada Highway, about halfway between Suffield and Tilley.

Mounties, Brooks ambulance crews and the Tilley Fire Department responded. They found the three occupants of a sedan – men aged 37 and 33, and a woman aged 31 – deceased on the scene.

Six occupants of the truck did not receive serious injuries.

Initial investigation leads police to believe the car was travelling above the speed limit when it crossed the meridian on the divided highway and collided with the truck.
