  • 2 car collision in Vancouver leaves 5 year old girl badly injured

Vancouver – Vancouver Police are investigating the cause of a Kitsilano collision that sent a five-year-old girl to hospital with critical injuries Wednesday morning.

The girl was standing on the sidewalk with her father and siblings when two cars collided in the intersection of Cornwall Avenue and Arbutus Street around 11 a.m. The vehicles then mounted the sidewalk and struck the girl. There were no other life-threatening injuries.

Both drivers and a number of witnesses remained at the collision scene, and VPD is now collecting evidence to determine what caused the initial collision.

Anyone with information who has not yet spoken to police is asked to call the VPD’s Collision Investigation Unit at 604-717-3012.
