  • 3 vehicle collision leaves one dead in Abbotsford

On Tuesday, at 8:17 am, AbbyPD Patrol Officers encountered a serious collision at the intersection of George Ferguson Way and Bourquin Cres West while conducting patrols.

Upon arrival, emergency service workers located a three-vehicle collision. One of the drivers was found suffering from serious life-threatening injuries and was transported to the hospital, but sadly succumbed to his injuries. All other parties involved in the collision sustained non-life-threatening injuries.

A 55-year-old driver of the offending vehicle remained on the scene. Alcohol is believed to be a factor in the collision. AbbyPD Patrol Officers and Major Crime Detectives are in the early stages of this investigation.
