A head-on crash on the Forest Hills extension in Cole Harbour has claimed the lives of two men.
RCMP Cpl. Joe Taplin says the crash between a car and van happened on the Forest Hills Extension, about a kilometre north of the intersection with Main Street just after 10 p.m. Sunday.
“Two individuals travelling in a car who were travelling northbound were both pronounced dead at the scene,” said Taplin. “The man travelling in the van southbound was treated for minor injuries at the scene.”
Taplin says the highway was closed down while a traffic collision analyst was on the scene to try and determine the cause of the accident. The Forest Hills extension reopened around 4:30 a.m. today.
So far there’s no indication on what might have caused the accident, and the names and ages of the victims have not been released.
