One dead, two badly hurt in Vancouver vehicle incident being investigated as homicide

Vancouver Police say one man is dead and two others are in hospital suffering from serious injuries after a vehicle incident in the city’s south side neighbourhood.

Police say the man’s death is Vancouver’s 14th homicide this year.

A Vancouver Police statement says officers discovered the three victims after responding to a roll-over vehicle collision near Fraser Street and East 55th Avenue.

Police say the homicide victim, a Vancouver man, was pronounced dead at hospital while the two others are being treated for serious injuries.

Police, who believe the three men were driving in the same vehicle when they were involved in a confrontation with people in another car, say no arrests have been made and the victims’ names have not been released.

Police say they are looking for dash-camera footage and witnesses who were in the area of Main and Fraser streets between 41st and 57th avenues on Saturday night between 10:30 and 11:15.
