Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 04 Nov, 2019 08:52 PM

    KAMLOOPS, B.C. - A man has been arrested following a deadly hit-and-run crash in the British Columbia Interior.

     

    Kamloops RCMP say the arrest was made Sunday after police identified the registered owner of a pickup truck involved in a collision with a sedan several hours earlier.

     

    Two people in the car died, another suffered life-threatening injuries and a fourth was also badly hurt.

     

    First responders at the scene said the driver of the pickup and possibly a passenger fled before police arrived.

     

    RCMP Cpl. Jodie Shelkie says the involvement of the man under arrest is still being investigated and the identity of the pickup driver has not yet been determined.

     

    Police continue to appeal for witnesses and are particularly interested in speaking with a woman who was walking nearby when the crash occurred, but left a short time later. (CFJC)
