3 dead, 1 injured in Montérégie car crash
Three people died in a fire after their vehicle crashed in Saint-Paul-de-l'Île-aux-Noix, Que., have died. A fourth passenger was injured. Emergency services were called to the scene around 10 p.m. Saturday evening on Principale Street, near 16th Avenue. 'According to initial reports, the vehicle was travelling south on Principale Street when it veered off the road. It ended up in a ditch before colliding with a tree. The vehicle then caught fire,' said provincial police (SQ) spokesperson Laurie Avoine in an interview on Sunday morning. She said an 18-year-old woman managed to get out of the vehicle. 'She was taken to the hospital for treatment of serious injuries. However, her life is not in danger,' Avoine said. 'Three occupants were unable to get out in time. They were pronounced dead at the scene.' The identities of the victims will have to be confirmed by the coroner's office. An SQ reconstructionist specializing in collision investigations was dispatched to study the scene and determine the circumstances surrounding the fatal accident. A section of Route Principale was still closed to traffic shortly before 9 a.m. Sunday. It was too early to determine whether speed, alcohol or drugs could have been a factor in the crash. All possibilities are being examined by the SQ, and the investigation is ongoing. This report by The Canadian Press was first published in French July 20, 2025.
