Langley man sole survivor of fatal Surrey crash

Five members of one family killed in Sunday morning collision.

A 46-year-old Langley man is the only survivor of a horrific collision at the corner of 32 Avenue and 176 Street in Surrey on Sunday morning.

Five members of one Surrey family were killed in the collision, which occurred about 11 a.m. A  2012 Dodge Caravan travelling west on 32 Avenue, driven by the Langley man, collided with the 1994 Toyota Corolla containing the five family members. The car was travelling north on 176 Street.

Surrey RCMP say the Caravan driver allegedly went through a red light.

The force of the collision cut the Corolla in two. The driver was a 31-year-old  woman. Also killed were her mother-in-law, aged 68, sister-in-law, aged 47, and her two children, a five-year-old boy and three-year-old girl.

The Langley man is in serious but stable condition in hospital.

Surrey RCMP and the Lower Mainland Integrated Collision Analyst/Reconstruction Services (ICARS) team continue to investigate the crash. Both roads were closed for much of Sunday to allow the investigation to proceed.

No charges have been laid at this time.
