Deadly day on roads south of Vancouver, with three dead in two crashes

VANCOUVER – Three people are dead following a pair of fatal crashes south of Vancouver.

A spokeswoman for Delta police says one person was killed in a crash between a vehicle and a semi-truck Sunday morning.

Sharlene Brooks says it’s too early to say what may have contributed to the crash.

She says a stretch of Highway 10 will remain closed for several hours as officers investigate.

Surrey RCMP say in a release that two people have died following a crash between two vehicles on King George Boulevard.

They say the cause of the crash has not been determined, and alcohol, drugs and distracted driving are all being taken into consideration.
