The two lane portion of Highway 1 outside of Falcon Beach was closed for two hours on Tuesday as police investigated a head-on collision.

RCMP say at about 3:15 p.m. a Chevrolet Malibu travelling westbound on Highway 1 crossed the center line and into the path of an eastbound Pontiac G6.

Two people inside the Pontiac and three people inside the Chevy were taken to both Lake of the Woods District Hospital and St. Anne Hospital for treatment of non-life threatening injuries.

RCMP continue to investigate.

This latest crash comes almost exactly one month after another head-on crash occurred in the same area. On May 23, five people were sent to hospital when two vehicles collided on the same highway near Falcon Beach.
