  • Four people dead after crash involving semi truck and SUV outside Calgary

Four people are dead after a crash involving an SUV and a semi truck hauling a grain trailer at a rural intersection northeast of Calgary.

RCMP say they were called about a crash Friday morning at the intersection of highways 9 and 564 in Rocky View County.

Police say it appears the semi hit the SUV as it was rolling through a stop sign to make a turn.

Both vehicles ended up in a ditch.

Police say a 62-year-old woman and 38-year-old man from Calgary and a man and woman in their early 60s from the Philippines were killed in the SUV.

They say the 68-year-old man driving the truck had minor injuries.
