Officers with the Collision Investigation Unit attended the scene and determined that a 2010 red Dodge Journey, driven by a 28-year-old female, was traveling westbound on King Road when for reasons still under investigation, crossed the centre line and entered the eastbound lane, colliding with a 2008 red GMC Canyon, driven by a 44-year-old male.
A 2007 white Ford F-150 also driving eastbound was unable to stop in time and collided with the rear end of the Canyon, pushing it into the north ditch on King Road.
