  • Woman airlifted to hospital after car crash in Mission says RCMP

Mounties say officers are investigating a crash that occurred on Boxing Day in Mission, B.C. after a female had been airlifted to hospital with serious injuries. 

Mission RCMP says in a statement sent out on Thursday afternoon that the collision took place before noon, which shut down Lougheed Highway between Nelson Street and Oliver Street in both directions.

Police say early indications suggest that one vehicle hydroplaned and struck a vehicle in the oncoming lane.

The RCMP say their team is investigating the crash.

DriveBC reported on social media Thursday evening that the highway has opened.
