According to investigators, an eastbound Volkswagen Jetta and westbound Acura TLX crashed around 4:30 a.m. in the westbound lanes of Edmonton’s ring road between Calgary Trail and 111 Street.
The Volkswagen’s driver and all three people inside the Acura were hospitalized with non-life-threatening injuries, police said.
Alcohol is believed to be a factor.
