A second accident involved a van and semi-truck colliding near Alice Lake. A total of nine people were taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, police said.
Lastly, near the Big Orange Bridge, a northbound vehicle struck the centre median and ended up in the southbound lanes before coming to a stop. The driver was injured and taken to the hospital.
Break-and-enter to a local business
On May 28, a man used a screwdriver to wedge open a lock at a business on Queens Way. When the alarm went off, the man was scared away and, thus, did not take anything from the business.
