KAMLOOPS, B.C. — One member of the Thompson Rivers University men’s volleyball team is dead and two more are in critical condition following a car crash Wednesday in Kamloops.

The RCMP says their small car was hit by an out-of-control vehicle and pushed into a busy intersection in Kamloops, causing a multi-car pileup.

The crash happened Wednesday near the TRU campus.

The school has confirmed the three men — all in their ’20s — played for the university’s Wolfpack volleyball team. Their names have not been released.
