Three individuals lost their lives in separate road accidents in Quebec overnight. One incident occurred around 12:30 a.m. when a vehicle veered off Route 132 East near Chemin Mistral in Saint-Michel-de-Bellechasse. The driver, a 35-year-old man who was alone in the vehicle, seemed to have lost control for unknown reasons, leading to the fatal outcome. The road was temporarily closed but reopened by 4:45 a.m.
In another tragic event at approximately 3:20 a.m., emergency services responded to a single-vehicle crash on Route 138 near Franquelin. The Quebec Police mentioned that four individuals were in the vehicle when the driver apparently lost control under unclear circumstances. Following the accident, all occupants were rushed to the hospital, where one person succumbed to their injuries while the remaining three are in critical condition.
A third car crash was reported at 6 a.m. on Route 138 in Saint-Tite-des-Caps. The driver, reasons still undetermined, veered out of their lane while travelling eastbound, causing the vehicle to roll multiple times. A man and a woman in their 30s were inside the car and sustained serious injuries. Tragically, the 37-year-old woman passed away at the hospital, while the man remains in critical condition.
