CHETWYND, B.C. — Mounties in northern British Columbia are asking for any information about a head-on crash that killed two teenagers and seriously injured another man.
A statement from RCMP in Chetwynd, northeast of Prince George, says officers responded to the crash along Highway 97 just after midnight on Sunday.
Police say a black 2001 Dodge 2500 pickup truck and a grey 2011 Ford F350 crashed along the route at the top of the Wabi Hill area.
They say the 19-year-old male driver of the Dodge as well as a passenger, a 15-year-old boy, were killed in the crash.
The Ford driver, a 21-year-old man, was taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries.
The Mounties say factors that may have contributed to the crash aren't yet known.
They're asking anyone with information about the crash, including dash-camera footage from the area, to contact the Chetwynd detachment.
