    VANCOUVER — Police say a man is dead and three people are injured after all four were struck by vehicles in separate incidents around Metro Vancouver overnight.
     
    Mounties in Langley say a 54-year-old man was hit by a truck at about 9:20 p.m. Thursday and has been pronounced dead in hospital.
