An ambulance rushing a patient to care collided with a tractor on Tuesday afternoon northeast of Calgary, leaving the patient in critical condition and two paramedics seriously injured.
The crash happened around 1 p.m. at a rural intersection on Highway 9 and Range Road 254, just east of Beiseker.
RCMP say the ambulance had its lights and sirens activated and was transporting a male patient when it struck the tractor.
The patient was airlifted by STARS in critical condition. Two paramedics, the driver and the paramedic caring for the patient in the back, were taken to hospital by ground ambulance with serious but stable injuries.
Highway 9 remains closed in the area while officials investigate.
