By Kate Winquist

On January 12, 2025, Warman RCMP were called to the scene of two separate fatal collisions on Highway #7, which collectively took the lives of three individuals and left several others injured.

The first incident occurred around 8 a.m. west of Delisle, SK, where two SUVs collided. Tragically, the driver of one SUV, a 73-year-old man from Wiseton, SK, was pronounced dead at the scene. The other SUV, carrying two people, resulted in further tragedy as the passenger, a 65-year-old woman from Furdale, SK, was also declared deceased by EMS. The driver, a male adult, was transported by STARS to the hospital with serious injuries.

Later that evening, at approximately 10:50 p.m., another collision was reported on Highway #7, this time west of Laura, SK. The investigation revealed a collision between an SUV and a pickup truck. The driver of the SUV, a 42-year-old man from Airdrie, AB, was pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the pickup truck was taken to the hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.

Both collisions prompted the closure of Highway #7 for investigation. Warman RCMP, with the assistance of a Saskatchewan RCMP collision reconstructionist, are continuing their investigations into the circumstances surrounding these tragic events. Families of the victims have been notified.
