 At least 15 people were killed in the Canadian prairie province of Manitoba on June 15 after a semi-trailer truck hit a vehicle normally used to carry elderly and disabled people, the Winnipeg Free Press newspaper said. The crash occurred near the town of Carberry in southwestern Manitoba, 170 kilometers west of Winnipeg, the report said. If the death toll is confirmed, it would represent one of the most lethal road accidents in recent Canadian history. The Winnipeg Free Press said the second vehicle was operated by Handi Transit, which transports the elderly and those with disabilities. The CTV network also said 15 people had died. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police said all available resources were being deployed to the scene. Manitoba Health Authorities said mass casualty response was underway.
