Four Vehicle Collision Ties Up Traffic in Downtown Fort Frances

OPP says it could have been a lot worse.

As many as four vehicles were involved in that accident yesterday afternoon on Portage Avenue in Fort Frances.

Constable Anne McCoy says it started when the driver of a pick up truck suffered a medical problem a couple of blocks from the downtown area.

The truck went back onto the road, missing oncoming car before colliding with two parked vehicles.

The 65-year-old driver and a woman inside one of the parked vehicles were taken to hospital for treatment.
