A family member has confirmed that the woman who died in a single vehicle rollover on the Dempster Highway on Friday evening is Robyn Lennie of Tsiigehtchic.

A GoFundMe page says Lennie leaves behind three children, ages five and under. So far more than $3,000 has been raised to help pay for childcare. 

Lennie's family confirmed the information in the GoFundMe page but did not want to speak to the media.

Inuvik RCMP said there were two other occupants in the vehicle with Lennie but they have not released information about their condition. They said an update will be provided on Monday. 

Inuvik and Fort McPherson RCMP responded to the incident at about 5:30 p.m. It happened about 10 kilometres north of the Tsiigehtchic ferry crossing.
