UPDATE 10:15 A.M. MONDAY: Mounties in Mission have confirmed four people were taken to hospital Sunday morning after a head-on crash on Highway 7 in Mission, including a 63-year-old Mission woman in critical condition.

According to a statement from Mission RCMP spokesperson Corporal Harrison Mohr, first responders were called for the report of a collision shortly before 9:30 a.m. on Sunday, May 11, after two vehicles collided on Lougheed Highway east of 287 Street. Police say a grey 2024 Mazda SUV had been driving eastbound on the highway along the Stave River Bridge, when a westbound vehicle – a red 2002 Ford Focus hatchback – reportedly lost control and entered the oncoming lanes, striking the grey Mazda head-on.

The driver and passenger of the Mazda, and the driver of the Ford, were all transported hospital with various injuries. The passenger of the Ford – a 63-year-old woman from Mission – was taken to hospital in critical condition.
