RCMP say a transport truck hit four vehicles that had stopped for construction in Wolfville, N.S. A separate crash two days later also killed a man on that highway in Berwick.

A child and a woman were killed in a multi-vehicle crash in Wolfville, N.S., over the Thanksgiving Day long weekend.

According to RCMP, the crash happened when a transport truck travelling eastbound on Highway 101 on Saturday morning collided with four vehicles that had stopped for construction. Two people inside a GMC Acadia — a 62-year-old woman and a child from East Kingston — died at the scene.“A third occupant of that same vehicle, a 40-year-old woman, was transported via EHS LifeFlight with life threatening injuries. No other injuries were reported to police,” RCMP added in a news release.
