A two-year-old child has died after a fall from a third-storey window at a home in Vernon, B.C.
A statement from RCMP says it happened Saturday, May 15.
The toddler was taken to hospital and police say they were informed about the fall the next day.
The statement does not say when the child died.
RCMP say no criminality is suspected in the death.
The BC Coroners Service is carrying out a separate investigation.
The report says tree trimming is the most common offence as novice pruners drop branches across power lines, frequently causing outages. More than 100 reports linked to what BC Hydro calls "backyard logging" have been received since March 2020, but the utility suspects the number is much higher.
Beginning today, COVID-19 Mouth Rinse/Gargle Sample Collection kits will be available in all elementary and secondary schools in the Surrey School District.
Police found 20-year-old Keryane Arsenault suffering from gunshot wounds when they arrived at scene of the shooting around 9pm. She was transported to hospital but succumbed to her injuries.
The checks are part of the provincial enforcement actions that are meant to help reduce the spread of COVID-19 throughout the province by limiting travel between three regions: Lower Mainland/ Fraser Valley, Vancouver Island, and Norther/Interior.
Eligible people who live in these neighborhoods can register now on the Get Vaccinated website and will be immediately contacted to book their vaccine.
Surrey RCMP say the accident happened just before 1 pm on Thursday. The cause of the 3 car crash is unknown.
