One Person In Hospital Following Vehicle Rollover South of Quesnel

One person was sent to the hospital in a helicopter following a single-vehicle rollover south of Quesnel in the morning of June 18.

Quesnel RCMP say they responded to the call of the incident at around 10:30 am in the morning between Marguerite and Macallister, approximately 50 km south of Quesnel.

When arriving on the scene, officers saw that a single pick-up truck with two occupants had rolled over on Highway 97, and the driver was still trapped inside the truck.

Police say Rescue Crews had to close the road for a short period of time as the driver was extracted from the vehicle.

The passenger received minor injuries, and the driver was flown to the hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

Police say the investigation into the cause of the accident is still under investigation.

The road has been reopened since the accident was cleared earlier on June 18.
