Three-car crash on 264 St. sends one to hospital in air ambulance

Alcohol is believed to be a factor in a three-car collision on 264 Street on Saturday.

Alcohol is believed to be a factor in a three-car collision on 264 Street which saw one driver airlifted to hospital on Saturday, Jan. 3.

Shortly after 1 p.m., police were called to the intersection of 264 Street and 24 Avenue to investigate a collision involving a Honda, an Acura and a Volkswagen.

Witnesses said the Volkswagen was making a left hand turn onto 264 from 24 Avenue when it was hit from behind by the Honda. The Honda then spun and collided with the Acura.

All three vehicles had the drivers as the sole occupants.

The driver of the Honda, a 27-year-old Abbotsford resident, was unconscious at the scene and was airlifted to hospital.

The driver of the Volkswagen (a 33-year-old man from Pitt Meadows) was looked over at the scene by BC Ambulance while the driver of the Acura, a 26-year-old Langley man, was taken to hospital for treatment only as a precaution.

Police believe the Honda driver may have been impaired by alcohol and will follow up with a warrant for blood samples to further the investigation.

If anyone witnessed the collision and has not spoken to police, they are asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.
