A crash between a transport truck and a bus carrying a junior hockey team in Western Canada left 14 people dead, Canadian media reported citing police. Fourteen more were injured -- including three critically -- in the accident involving the Humboldt Broncos team bus, which was heading north for a Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League playoff game against the Nipawin Hawks, the Saskatoon StarPhoenix reported. Police said the crash took place about 28 kilometers (18 miles) north of Tisdale, Saskatchewan as the bus was traveling on highway 35. Royal Canadian Mounted Police inspector Ted Monroe had said at a news conference late Friday that there were "fatalities among the passengers on the bus" and "a number of serious injuries". "Its a horrible accident," said Darren Opp, president of the Nipawin Hawks hockey team. "Its very, very bad." Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau expressed his sadness at the tragic incident involving such young athletes. "I cannot imagine what these parents are going through, and my heart goes out to everyone affected by this terrible tragedy, in the Humboldt community and beyond," Trudeau wrote on Twitter. Kevin Henry, a coach who runs a hockey school in Prince Albert, said people are in shock. "It is sort of every parents worst nightmare."
