NORTH DELTA, B.C. — A pregnant mother, a toddler and a police officer were all taken to hospital as a precaution after a collision in a Metro Vancouver intersection.
The accident on Friday afternoon took place on the border between Surrey, B.C., and North Delta.
Sgt. Sarah Swallow of the Delta Police Department says the officer was responding without lights and sirens to an assault call and travelling north on Scott Road when a car turned left in front of him in the intersection.
She says nobody appeared to suffer visible or serious injuries but the officer, mother and child were taken to hospital to be checked out.
Swallow says the province's police watchdog was called but at this point the accident didn't meet the threshold for the Independent Investigations Office of B.C. to get involved.
Collision investigators were on the scene and Swallow says police are looking for witnesses.
