Woman rescued in Surrey rollover crash

SURREY — A young Surrey woman was rescued by Surrey firefighters Monday night after the car she was riding in went out of control and rolled over into a ditch off Colebrook Road.

It happened at about 7:30 p.m., next to the B.C. Rail line near the King George Boulevard overpass.

The Grey Hyundai rolled after its driver, another Surrey woman, lost control trying to make a left-hand turn. The driver and passenger, both 20, were taken to hospital to be treated for minor injuries. The passenger was trapped in the car.

“Alcohol and speed have not been ruled out as contributing factors in the motor vehicle collision,” Surrey Staff Sgt. Murray Hedderson said. “The incident is still under investigation.”
