Shared Health confirmed in a statement that nine patients remain in hospital, including four people in critical care.

The incident occurred when a bus carrying seniors from Dauphin to the Sand Hills Casino near Carberry crossed the westbound lanes of Highway 1 near the intersection with Highway 5 and was struck by an eastbound semi-trailer.

The RCMP are scheduled to publicly announce the names of the deceased in Dauphin on Thursday at noon, followed by a community memorial service at the Ukrainian Orthodox Auditorium at 7 p.m. that same day.
