CRESTON, B.C. — Police say two people and two horses are dead after a highway crash in the southeastern British Columbia community of Moyie.
RCMP from the Creston detachment say a tractor trailer was westbound on the highway at about 9 a.m. on Saturday when it hit black ice and jackknifed.
They say the truck careened into the oncoming lane where it collided head-on with an eastbound pickup truck that was hauling a horse trailer.
Police say the tractor trailer driver, a 59-year-old Edmonton man, was ejected from the truck and died at the scene.
