“The 65-year-old female driver and an adult female passenger of the SUV, from Saskatoon, did not report any injuries to police.”
Police said part of Highway 11, near the junction with Highway 2, was closed during the investigation. The highway has since been reopened to the public, but the RCMP noted that the crash remains under police investigation.
