Officers from The Pas RCMP were called to a report of a single-vehicle rollover on Provincial Road 287, located south of Cormorant on Saturday at around 4:20 p.m.
Investigators have determined that a vehicle, travelling eastbound with five occupants, had lost control where it entered the ditch and rolled.
Two male passengers in the vehicle, a 35-year-old from Opaskwayak Cree Nation and a 36-year-old from Prince Albert, Sask., were pronounced dead on scene. The 39-year-old male driver, from Opaskwayak Cree Nation, and a 28-year-old woman from The Pas, were rushed to hospital, and later life-flighted to Winnipeg, with life-threatening injuries.
A 25-year-old woman, from The Pas, was transported to hospital where she was treated and released.
As a result of the crash, Provincial Road 287 was closed between Clearwater Lake and Cormorant until Sunday morning.
The Pas RCMP, along with an RCMP Forensic Collision Reconstructionist, continue to investigate.
