A woman is in critical condition after being struck by a semi-truck on the side of Highway 16, east of Lashburn on Saturday.

The incident happened on the evening of Feb. 29 around 6:30 p.m. when Maidstone RCMP responded to a semi-truck colliding into a pedestrian.

According to police, two drivers were both standing outside their vehicles exchanging information after being involved in a rear-end collision. That’s when a semi-truck attempted to swerve around the collision scene and struck both vehicles, including one of the drivers standing on the roadway.

A 35-year-old woman was transported to a hospital in Lloydminster then airlifted to a hospital in Edmonton on Sunday.

The victim remains in critical condition and officers have not received reports of injury to any of the other people involved in the crash.
