A woman is in critical condition after a multi-vehicle crash on Anthony Henday Drive Monday afternoon.
Edmonton police responded to a four-vehicle crash on the northbound lanes of the Henday, between 111 Avenue and Yellowhead Trail, at approximately 2:50 p.m.

The two are in hospital.
No one else was injured in the collision.
