    WINNIPEG — Two teenagers are dead and three others injured after a pickup truck crashed in Manitoba.
     
    The RCMP say they were called just before 8 a.m. Saturday to a single-vehicle rollover outside of Bloodvein First Nation, about 250 km north of Winnipeg.
     
    Officers say nine people were in the truck when it crashed, some of them in the truck's bed.
