Cochrane RCMP responded to a collision between an SUV and truck/horse trailer at the intersection of Highway 22 and the community of Fireside yesterday (June 7) morning.

RCMP say both parties had a green light but as the horse trailer was turning the SUV ended up striking the side of the trailer.

The file on the collision is currently under investigation but RCMP say all parties are okay. "No injuries to the horses, they were a little shaken up and the other two drivers were as well, but no injuries to either party."

The collision took a while to clean up, RCMP share, frustrating 8 a.m. motorists. "It, unfortunately, tied up traffic and was a pain for a lot of rush hour people. The horse trailer and truck we were able to get out of the way but we weren't able to move the SUV so there was a time delay waiting for a tow and the cleanup crew." 

It is unknown at this time if charges will be laid on either driver involved in the incident.
