RCMP said a pickup truck driven by the 32-year-old man from the RM of Lac du Bonnet was headed south on Highway 11 near Milan Road when it crossed the centre line and collided with a northbound SUV being driven by the 34-year-old female from Utterson, Ont., on June 21 at about 10:20 p.m.

Her vehicle went into the east side ditch and rolled. A second pickup truck, driven by a 60-year-old man from Winnipeg, was behind the SUV and swerved to avoid colliding with the pickup, entering the ditch and colliding with the SUV, police said.

The woman was pronounced dead at the scene. The 32-year-old was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries and the 60-year-old had minor injuries.

RCMP continue to investigate.
