NEWTON — Police say a 13-year-old girl is in critical condition after a multi-vehicle crash in Surrey on Sunday.
Just before 2 p.m., Surrey RCMP responded to a report of a collision at the intersection of 64th Avenue and 124th Street.
When they arrived, they discovered the teenager had been ejected from a vehicle.
She was taken to the hospital by ambulance and as of Monday morning, remains in critical condition, according to police.
“It appears the vehicle she was travelling in ran a red light,” said Corporal Scotty Schumann. “She did not have a seatbelt on.”
A witness at the scene said the victim suffered serious head injuries.
According to Surrey RCMP, four other individuals were transported to hospital to treat minor injuries.
