A 50-year-old woman was seriously injured in Pointe Claire Sunday when she was in one of two cars hit by a pickup truck about 4 p.m.
The woman was in the front passenger seat of a car heading north on Selkirk Ave., at the intersection with Brunswick Blvd. The woman’s side of the car was struck by a westbound pickup truck.
The car’s driver, a man in his 50s, was also sent to hospital with minor injuries. The pickup truck went on to hit a second car heading south on Selkirk. The driver of the pickup had minor injuries, while the occupants of the second car that he hit were not seriously hurt.
Montreal police Constable Raphaël Bergeron said the driver of the pickup went through a stop sign. He said the driver may have been blinded by the sun.
