Emergency responders and others have come together on Friday to honour two paramedics killed in a tragic crash in New Brunswick.
A procession began in Saint John at 1 p.m. Friday. It is making its way to Prince Edward Island.
They are expected to arrive at Dingwell Funeral Home in PEI at around 6:30 tonight.
On Tuesday, on Highway 16 between Port Elgin and the Confederation Bridge, an Island EMS ambulance and a transport truck collided head-on.
RCMP say a 77-year-old woman from Montague, PEI, a 56-year-old man from Warren Grove, PEI, and a 23-year-old woman from Nine Mile Creek, PEI, died in the crash near Melrose.
Two were paramedics, and the third was a patient.
