SHAWNIGAN LAKE – Mounties in Shawnigan Lake say a woman has died after a crash on Highway 1, south of Mill Bay, B.C.
They say in a news release that it appears the vehicles collided head-on, sending one down an embankment while the second was engulfed in flames.
Police say there were at least four people in the vehicles.
They say one woman was pronounced dead at the scene, but the condition of the other three was not confirmed.
The news release says the BC Highway Patrol’s Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service team has been deployed to assist with the investigation.
The Mounties are also warning people travelling through the area that delays should be expected as investigators remain on-site, and are encouraging anyone with information or dash-camera footage of the crash to contact them.
