The Delta Police Department is asking for the public's help in locating a Tesla driver believed to have been in the area during a fatal collision that occurred on May 2. The crash took place at the intersection of 118 Street and 75A Avenue shortly after 3 p.m., resulting in one death and five individuals being hospitalized.
Authorities released a photo of the Tesla, which they believe may have witnessed the incident or been involved. Investigators are urging the driver or anyone with information to come forward as they piece together the events leading up to the collision.
The deceased has not yet been publicly identified, pending notification of next of kin. The five hospitalized victims are in various conditions, though updates on their status have not been provided. The Delta Police Department continues to investigate the cause of the crash, with a focus on determining whether speed, impairment, or other factors played a role.
Local residents have expressed shock over the incident, describing the intersection as typically busy but not prone to such severe accidents. Traffic disruptions occurred in the area as emergency crews responded, but normal flow has since resumed.
This tragedy adds to a series of recent incidents in British Columbia, including a separate story about a Canadian-born NBA player's death and a nurses' strike vote. The Delta Police are committed to finding answers and ensuring accountability. Anyone with dashcam footage or other evidence is encouraged to contact the department's tip line.
