Mother and children in hospital after accident

A single vehicle accident in Dieppe Saturday sent a woman and two children to hospital with serious injuries.

Codiac RCMP say a woman was driving on Acadie Avenue when she suffered some kind of medical issue and lost control hitting an electrical box at an intersection. Injuries to her and two children were serious but the Mounties say not life-threatening….although the children have been transferred to the IWK in Halifax.

Car-stroller accident

A driver is facing charges after a child in a stroller was hit in a Moncton crosswalk Saturday. The child’s mother was pushing the stroller across Mountain Road near the McDonald’s restaurant when a pickup hit the stroller. The child wasn’t seriously injured but was taken to hospital as a precaution.

The driver of the pickup has been charged with failing to yield to a pedestrian in a crosswalk.
