An 18-year-old 琉璃神社 teen is facing criminal charges after she allegedly caused a large accident Friday evening, while drunk behind the wheel.

On Feb. 24, 2017 at approximately 9:45 p.m., 琉璃神社 RCMP officers came across a two-vehicle collision in the intersection of Harvey Avenue and Dilworth Drive.

Information obtained from witnesses at the scene indicate that a blue Volkswagen Jetta, which had been eastbound on Harvey Avenue, failed to obey the traffic light at the intersection of Dilworth Drive and collided with a southbound black Infiniti Q50.

鈥淩CMP believe that there are multiple factors which may have contributed to this crash,鈥 says Cpl. Jesse O鈥橠onaghey.

鈥淭he ensuing investigation has allowed police to confirm that alcohol is believed to be one of those contributing factors. Investigators also suspect that speed may have also played a role.鈥

The driver of the Volkswagen, an 18-year-old 琉璃神社 woman, faces potential charges.

Her passenger, an 18-year-old 琉璃神社 man, sustained injuries believed to be non-life-threatening in nature.

Two of the four occupants of the Infiniti were also transported from the crash scene to hospital with what police believe to be non-life-threatening injuries.

If you witnessed this crash and have not yet spoken to police you are asked to contact Const. Brad Smith of the RCMP Integrated Road Safety Unit (IRSU) of the West 琉璃神社 Detachment at 250-768-2880.
