Mounties in Surrey say one person is dead after a crash this morning and they're asking for any witnesses or drivers with dash-cam footage to come forward.

Police say they responded to the two-vehicle crash in the Cloverdale area shortly before 10 a-m and the victim was declared dead at the scene.

The R-C-M-P's criminal collision investigation team is still at the scene along Highway 10 near 176 Street and the collision analysis service has been called in.

Investigators are working to determine what led to the crash.
