Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 26 Jun, 2023 09:34 AM

A car crash in Surrey over the weekend has killed two people and injured two others.

Surrey R-C-M-P say the crash happened early Sunday, when a Volkswagen collided with a Hyundai sedan while both were northbound on 176 Street near 32 Avenue.

Police say the crash sent both cars into a water-filled ditch beside the road, and two people in the Hyundai have died while two others from the same vehicle are injured, one critically.

The driver of the Volkswagen was the lone occupant in that vehicle and was arrested by police, who say alcohol and speed may have been factors in the crash.
