At around 9:00 a.m. on July 6, Delta police and firefighters responded after a collision between a tandem dump truck and a black Pontiac Sunfire in the 9800 block of Ladner Trunk Road resulted in both vehicles going into the ditch.

The passenger of the Sunfire, a 17-year-old male from Langley, died at the scene as a result of his injuries. The driver, a 23-year-old female from Langley, was transported to hospital with serious injuries that are not believed to be life threatening.
