Highway 1 has reopened in both directions after a fatal collision left three people dead in a semi-truck collision east of Golden Sunday morning, leaving the highway closed for 36 hours.

The incident involved two semi-trucks that apparently collided head-on, according to RCMP, one of which was carrying cattle. Eye witnesses say that at least one of the semis was on fire.

The fire was extinguished sometime on Aug. 28.

RCMP have confirmed that three have died, after originally only confirming two. RCMP say that they were originally only able to locate two bodies, although three fatalities were suspected.

RCMP will need DNA tests to confirm identities.

Tanner Liefting, 25, of Chilliwack has been identified as one of the deceased through friends on Facebook.

Brandon Richard Johnson aged 30, of Chilliwack B.C. and Jagsir Singh Gill, 31, from Punjab, were named as the other two deceased by Skilled Truckers Canada.

Thousands have already been raised through GoFundMe to help support the families of Liefting and Gill, . Gill91裸聊视频檚 fundraiser sits at.
