Spruce Plains RCMP say a 45-year-old female driver and a 16-year-old passenger were killed following a two-vehicle crash about eight kilometres east of Neepawa on Tuesday.

Officers say, around 2:25 p.m. on February 14th, the westbound vehicle crossed over the centre line on Highway 16, near the intersection of Road 82 W. At this point, they were struck by an eastbound SUV with two occupants, an 81-year-old male driver and a 75-year-old female passenger. 

The two people in the westbound vehicle from Neepawa were pronounced dead at the scene. The two people in the eastbound vehicle from Plumas were taken to hospital with serious but non-life threatening injuries. It's reported that all four were wearing their seatbelts at the time of the crash.

Spruce Plains RCMP, along with a Forensic Collision Reconstructionist, continue to investigate.
