The Independent Investigations Office (IIO) of BC is investigating a Surrey crash.
The investigation into the Feb. 13, 2022 collision was announced in a release Thursday (March 3).
The IIO says information reported by RCMP states that around 10:40 p.m. that evening police “attempted to conduct a traffic stop of a grey Chevrolet Cavalier near the intersections of 84 Avenue and 149A Street.”
The release adds that police reported the vehicle “did not stop, and police did not follow.”
Shortly after, the Cavalier was involved in a three-vehicle collision at 100 Avenue and 160 Street, IIO notes. The driver of the Cavalier was injured in the crash and taken to hospital, but there were no known serious injuries sustained by people in the other vehicles.
The IIO says it was notified of the incident “shortly after it occurred,” and began an investigation.
The IIO is asking anyone with information about the incident to contact the witness line toll-free at 1-855-446-8477 or via the contact form at iiobc.ca.
