Doctors and other hospital officials are expected to provide an update on a fire and power outage at the very same hospital where victims of Thursday's devastating crash on Highway 1 were being treated.

At approximately 3:10 a.m. a fire occurred in the electrical room of the Ann Thomas Building at Health Sciences Centre. The cause of the fire remains under investigation.

As a result of the fire, power was lost in multiple areas of HSC Winnipeg, as well as water damage in the Thoracic Clinic.

The crash occurred Thursday at the highway’s intersection with Highway 5 near the town of Carberry. RCMP from across the province were deployed to the scene along with the STARS air ambulance services from Winnipeg and Regina and other first responders.

Assistant RCMP Commissioner Rob Hill, commanding officer of the Manitoba RCMP, said the passenger bus was carrying approximately 25 people, mostly from Dauphin, Man., and the surrounding communities, and most passengers were seniors.
