Deadly crash in the Okanagan

Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 06 Jul, 2023 09:46 AM

The B-C Highway Patrol says it's investigating a deadly crash involving a pedestrian in the Okanagan over the Canada Day long weekend.

Police say they were called to the crash around noon last Saturday, where a car hit a pedestrian in a crosswalk on Highway 97-A in Enderby, B-C.

B-C Highway Patrol says a man was trying to cross the highway at Canyon Road when he was hit and killed by a Subaru Impreza.

Investigators from Kelowna are now in charge of the investigation, and hope any witnesses who may have seen the incident will come forward with information.
