Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 03 Aug, 2023 10:17 AM
R-C-M-P in Surrey are looking for the driver of a Tesla who drove by the scene of a fatal collision this weekend.
A pedestrian was hit Saturday in the 82-hundred-block of 128th Street and later died in hospital from his injuries.
Police say moments after the crash took place, a white Tesla drove southbound past the collision scene and may have unknowingly captured important dash camera footage.
They are asking anyone who was there that night or who may have dash camera footage of the collision or suspect vehicle to contact police.
A man is in hospital with serious injuries and B-C's independent police watchdog -- the Independent Investigations Office -- has been called to the scene. The I-I-O says police say they were called to a report of a potentially impaired driver on Highway 1 through West Vancouver and told investigators there was an exchange of gunfire as they arrived.
Investigators say a 56-year-old from Sechelt died from multiple gunshot wounds early Thursday morning. The victim was found outside a residence in Halfmoon Bay and died at the scene.
Police in Abbotsford, B-C, have arrested three suspects in connection with a home invasion this week. R-C-M-P say officers responded to a call Friday afternoon in the 33-thousand block of George Ferguson Way area.
Homicide investigators say now 40-year-old Navinder Gill is now waiting for a date to be set for his sentencing hearing. Police say 40-year-old Harpreet Kaur Gill was found stabbed on the evening of Dec. 7, 2022, and died of her injuries after being taken to hospital.

Surrey R-C-M-P say the crash happened early Sunday, when a Volkswagen collided with a Hyundai sedan while both were northbound on 176 Street near 32 Avenue. Police say the crash sent both cars into a water-filled ditch beside the road, and two people in the Hyundai have died while two others from the same vehicle are injured, one critically.
