MONTREAL, Que. – Three woman have died and three others were badly injured, after a pickup truck plowed into a group of cyclists on a rural Quebec highway Friday morning.
Six members of a Montreal area based cycling club – fiver women and one man – were biking along highway 112 in the village of Rougemont, when they were struck in the chain reaction crash. Speed bikes, helmets, sunglasses and a sports watch littered the scene of the accident.
The driver of the pickup truck immediately administered first aid.
Police said they are continuing to interview the driver, and do not know if they will lay any charges, but they have ruled out alcohol as a factor.
