Manitoba RCMP have issued a Canada-wide arrest warrant for the semi-driver involved in a crash that left an eight-year-old girl and her mother dead.
Navjeet Singh, a 25-year-old man from Brampton, Ont., is wanted on two counts of dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing death and one count of obstructing a peace officer.
The charges have not been tested in court.
They come in connection to the deadly crash last Friday evening about 13 kilometres west of Altona, Man. Investigators alleged the driver of the semi-truck failed to stop at an intersection and plowed into an SUV.
The driver of the SUV, 35-year-old Sara Unger, was killed on the scene. Her eight-year-old daughter Alexa was taken to hospital where she later died.
At the time, police said the driver of the semi—whom police have identified as Singh—was taken to hospital, treated for injuries, and released.
