MAIDSTONE, Sask. – RCMP say alcohol is believed to have been a factor in a rollover east of Maidstone, Sask. Friday. Officers were called to the single-vehicle crash on Highway 16 at 6:45 p.m.
Investigators say the westbound sedan lost control on Highway 16 and entered the median which caused the vehicle to roll and hit an approach.
A woman from Humboldt, Sask. was driving the vehicle which had a two-year-old passenger.
The driver suffered a serious but non-life threatening injury. She was treated on scene by EMS and then airlifted by STARS air ambulance to Royal University Hospital in Saskatoon where she is reported to be in stable condition.
