A couple of cars closed westbound traffic on a main thoroughfare Thursday afternoon.

“It just looks like a rear-ender,” says Constable Derek Redekop about the crash just east of Main Street on Brandt Street.

RCMP and Steinbach Fire Department were on the scene around 1:00 pm and had the street closed for approximately 30 minutes while cleaning debris.

“It looks like it’s minor injuries,” says Redekop who was not yet sure if anyone was taken to hospital.

“If they were, it was precautionary,” he explains.

Redekop also mentions the vehicles were towed away, with front end damage to the car involved, and back end damage to the van that was hit.
