REVELSTOKE — The Trans Canada Highway between Revelstoke and Golden is re-opened after a fatal collision Sunday (Sept. 5) morning.

RCMP say a collision between four vehicles has left one driver dead, four others injured, and closed the 1000-block of Highway 1 for multiple hours. Officers from Golden received a call to assist BC Emergency Health Services at 8 a.m.

According to police, witnesses reported that an eastbound red, pick-up truck veered into the westbound lane and collided with a motor home, which resulted in collisions to an eastbound pick-up truck, that was hauling a travel trailer, and a westbound semi-truck.

The driver of the pick-up, a 48-year-old man from Saskatchewan, was pronounced dead at the scene. His passengers, a woman and a child, have been transported to hospital with serious injuries.

Police say the driver of the motor home has been airlifted to hospital, while a child passenger has been transported by land to hospital. Both with what are believed to be serious but non-life-threatening injuries. The third passenger was not injured.
