2 teens die in single-vehicle collision west of Hinton
Two 14-year-old boys are dead after a Friday collision at Brule Road, west of Hinton.
Hinton RCMP responded to reports of a serious collision early Friday evening west of Range Road 262 at Brule Road, about two kilometres west of its intersection with Highway 40 and about eight kilometres west of the town near the entrance to Jasper National Park.
Upon arrival, RCMP discovered a 14-year-old boy deceased as a result of a single-vehicle collision. A second 14-year-old boy was transported to hospital in life-threatening condition but has since succumbed to his injuries.
The driver, a teenage boy, was taken to the Stollery Children's Hospital in serious but stable condition, his family told CTV News. He sustained a collapsed lung, concussion and neck injuries, and has since been released from hospital.
The investigation into the cause continues.
