At approximately 1:48 p.m. Sept. 15, the Nelson RCMP attended to a collision on Blewett Road, where a large white Ford motor home rolled down the embankment near Carlson Road as it was eastbound, according to RCMP Cpl. Michael Stefani

“Apparently a westbound vehicle was on or over the centre line and possibly contributed to the motor home going over the edge from the soft shoulder,” he said.

“The driver said she swerved to avoid the oncoming vehicle,” he added, but said the driver and her two granddaughters, who were also in the motorhome, were uninjured.

There is no damage estimate available at this time.

RCMP are asking for any witnesses or the driver of the other vehicle who might not have known of the resulting collision to come forward.

If you have any information on this collision, please contact Const. Van Horne at the Nelson RCMP or you can call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
