Saskatchewan RCMP have confirmed 14 deaths in a crash involving a junior hockey team.
They say 14 others were injured when a bus carrying the Humboldt Broncos was involved in the collision with a tractor-trailer last night.
RCMP aren’t releasing whether the deceased are players or coaches, saying they’re working to notify their families.
In a statement, the team says they’re in shock as they try to come to grips with this loss.
Many are offering their condolences on social media, including Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe, and Public Safety Minister Ralph Goodale. (File Photo)
