Passenger in Toyota Camry killed Sunday east of Mission after it turned in front of oncoming pickup truck: RCMP
MISSION – Police in Mission say a 56-year-old woman from Surrey has died after the vehicle she was riding in turned in front of an oncoming Toyota Tundra and was struck Sunday afternoon, and no one in the Camry was wearing a seat belt.
Mission RCMP spokesperson Corporal Harrison Mohr says police were called to Lougheed Highway and Sylvester Road in Hatzic (east of Mission) on Sunday, June 14 at about 3:30 p.m.
Corporal Mohr says a grey Toyota Tundra, pulling a trailer with an ATV on it, was travelling westbound on Lougheed Highway when a white Toyota Camry turned left in front of it, and was struck by the pickup.
Video from a nearby gas station revealed that the Camry, which had been travelling eastbound on Lougheed Highway, meant to turn left onto Sylvester Road but turned too soon, and instead began turning into the oncoming yield lane for traffic coming off of Sylvester Road.
