RCMP say the collision occurred late Tuesday night on Low Level Road.

Police say a vehicle with a lone male inside crossed the centre line, hitting the vehicle with the woman and her passenger.

By the time emergency services arrived, the man's vehicle was on fire, although he had been removed before the fire sparked.

All three were taken to hospital, where police say the female driver was declared dead, her passenger remains in critical condition and the male has serious injuries.

Police say alcohol may have been a factor in the crash.
