Four young women from Maple Ridge who had been celebrating a birthday on Saturday were involved in a deadly car crash early Sunday morning.
One of women died and two were left critically injured after the Uber car they were riding home in was hit by an SUV. The crash happened on Feb. 18 at about 3:45 a.m. in Burnaby, on Hwy. 1, near the Sprott Street off-ramp.
Police report they were travelling eastbound, and the Uber driver pulled over and stopped the Tesla on the side of the highway. An SUV, also eastbound, then struck the parked car. All four of the girls in the car were taken to hospital.
The driver of the second vehicle was released from the scene with minor injuries. Police say impairment is not believed to be a factor in the collision.
Jennifer Miller, the mother of one of the victims, told the story in a post on GoFundMe.com.
