A panel van and small transport truck collided Monday afternoon on the Yellowknife Highway near the Bristol Monument.

Damages appeared on the front of the truck and on the driver’s side of the van.

Two adults were transported to Stanton Territorial Hospital with minor injuries.

Police officers, paramedics, members of the municipal enforcement division and a tow truck were present on scene shortly before 4 p.m. Monday.

The municipal division blocked the entrance to Fred Henne Territorial Park and re-directed traffic away from the area.

Yellowknife RCMP advised that there is no suspicion of criminality at this time.
