  • B.C. RCMP say multiple victims injured in single vehicle crash

Mounties on Vancouver Island say they are investigating a single-vehicle crash that left "multiple" people injured. 

Sidney North Saanich RCMP say officers were called to a shopping plaza in Sidney at about 2:30 p.m. 

They say a number of people have been taken to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. 

Firefighters and the BC Ambulance Service also attended the scene. 

RCMP spokesman Cpl. Brett Urano says in a news release the investigation is ongoing, but police have determined that alcohol is not a factor. 

Police are appealing for witnesses and anyone who has dashcam footage to contact them.
