A serious collision near Mitchell sent three young pedestrians to hospital Monday evening.

Just after 6 p.m., emergency crews were called to Provincial Road 206 north of Highway 52 in the R.M. of Hanover.

A vehicle travelling at highway speed collided with three pedestrians walking on the road.

RCMP say the youth are from Steinbach.

STARS Air Ambulance airlifted one patient to hospital in Winnipeg. A ground ambulance transported two other patients to hospital.

Two of the patients are in stable condition, one with a broken leg, police said. The hospital released the third patient.

The driver was not injured. Police say alcohol is not a factor.

RCMP closed PR 206 from Highway 52 to Randolph Road for a couple hours midnight while they investigated.
