A two-vehicle crash closed the intersection of 208 Street and 40 Avenue Sunday morning March 8.

Police seized what appeared to be 25 grams of crack cocaine at the scene of a two-vehicle crash that sent four people to hospital Sunday morning (March 8) in Langley.

The drugs were discovered in a grey Chevrolet Aveo four-door hatchback that collided with a black Dodge Caravan at the intersection of 208 Street and 40 Avenue around 6 a.m.

Langley RCMP said it appeared the eastbound Aveo failed to stop for a red light and collided with the Caravan as it proceeded south.

The Caravan slammed into a light post while the Aveo went halfway through a chain link fence.

The driver and only occupant of the Caravan was a 29-year-old Langley woman who was transported by ground ambulance for treatment of head injuries that a police statement said were later determined to be superficial.

The driver of the Aveo, a 26-year-old woman from Surrey, was unresponsive at the scene and transported to hospital by air ambulance.

Her injuries were found to be minimal, police said.

Two male passengers were taken to hospital.

Their injuries were described as non-life threatening.

Police said impairment may be a factor in the collision.

Anyone who witnessed the collision and has not yet spoken to police is asked to call Langley RCMP at 604-532-3200.
