A vehicle carrying four people smashed into a concrete barrier on a Manitoba First Nation just northwest of The Pas Saturday morning leaving three people dead.

Officers arrived to find a female occupant standing outside of the vehicle, which was on fire. RCMP pronounced three people inside the vehicle dead at the scene.

RCMP haven't yet released details about what caused the crash.
