Police in Delta, B.C., say a 69-year-old woman has died following a collision Sunday afternoon. 

Police say they responded to the intersection of 116th Street and 77A Avenue following reports of a two-car collision at 12:20 p.m. 

Despite efforts from Delta Fire Department and BC Paramedics, police say the 69-year-old who was travelling as a passenger died.
