Vancouver – Vancouver Police are seeking witnesses to a serious collision on Granville Street last night, which left an 18-year-old woman with critical injuries.
VPD investigators worked overnight and throughout today to analyze the collision scene and collect evidence, after a black Nissan Xterra traveling north on Granville Street collided with a black BMW in the intersection of Granville and King Edward Avenue at 11:00 p.m. Saturday.
Investigators believe the collision occurred when the Nissan Xterra entered the intersection as the driver of the BMW was making a left turn from Granville Street to King Edward Avenue. A 17-year-old driver and two 18-year-old passengers from the BMW were taken to hospital, and two of the teens have since been discharged. The critically injured passenger remains in hospital.
The driver of the Nissan Xterra, a 52-year-old Vancouver man, was not seriously injured.
No charges have been laid and the investigation is ongoing.
VPD investigators are now looking for anyone who saw the black Nissan Xterra traveling north on Granville Street prior to the collision. Investigators believe information from those witnesses, or from vehicles with dash-cams, could assist in determining the speed of the Nissan and the way it was being driven in the moments before the collision.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Vancouver Police Collision Investigation Unit at 604-717-3012.
