Number 8 story of 2007 BRIGETTE JOBIN Herald Staff Three killed near Duck Lake Sseveral people from Prince Albert and area died in motor vehicle collisions this year. A head-on collision near Duck Lake in May claimed the lives of three people. Cassandra Bird, 30, was a passenger in a vehicle with her 35-year-old fiancé, a 19-year-old female coworker and a 22-year-old male coworker. The group worked at the Candle Lake Golf Resort. The crash happened on May 9 at about 10 p.m. on Highway 11. The four were headed northbound when the collision occurred with a vehicle driven by 34-year-old Lawrence Mullis. Bird and her 19-year-old coworker Misty Portsmith - both from Candle Lake - died in the crash, as did Mullis, who was from the Beardy's Okemasis First Nation. RCMP say that alcohol was not a factor in the crash. The collision is being blamed on "driver error". Sgt. Brad Kaeding of the RCMP said there was no conclusive cause made about the crash but it could have been that a driver fell asleep or was reaching for something or talking on the cell phone. "One of the drivers was in the wrong lane," he said, http://www.paherald.sk.ca/index.cfm?sid=91706&sc=4 The Prince Albert Herald
