Slave Lake RCMP investigate fatal head-on collision
Slave Lake, Alta. – On Oct. 22, 2023, at 12:38 p.m., Slave Lake RCMP responded to a report of a two-vehicle collision on Highway 2, approximately 28 kilometers south of Slave Lake.
Slave Lake RCMP, along with Fire Services and EMS attended the scene. Preliminary investigation indicates, a pick-up truck was travelling northbound on Highway 2 and crossed into the southbound lane colliding head-on with a southbound pick-up truck. The 64-year-old female driver of the northbound pick-up, a resident of High Level, was pronounced deceased on scene.
The female driver of the southbound pickup was transported to Edmonton for serious but non-life-threatening injuries. Alcohol and drugs do not appear to be a factor in this collision.

Slave Lake RCMP continue to investigate this collision and no further updates are anticipated.
