RCMP: Two People Suffer Serious Injuries in Highway 8 Crash

A section of Highway 8 between Queens and Annapolis counties was closed for several hours due to a serious crash.

RCMP Corporal Jennifer Clarke says traffic was detoured between Kempt and Maitland Bridge.

“It is a single vehicle collision,” says Clarke.

“I know LifeFlight has been used to transport two individuals to hospital with serious injuries.”

The single vehicle collision occurred shortly after 8 a.m. when the vehicle lost control, left the roadway and overturned in the ditch.

A third occupant of the vehicle was not injured.

The section of highway was closed until mid-afternoon.

An RCMP Traffic Analyst was called to examine the scene.
