“This collision was not reported when it occurred.” Cpl. Jocelyn Noseworthy said. “We are asking anyone who witnessed the collision, or has any information, to come forward and speak with us.”

They are also canvassing the area to see if there is any video surveillance that could assist in the investigation.

Highway 97 near UBC-Okanagan was closed for several hours in both directions following the crash but it has since re-opened.

The B.C. Coroners Service is also investigating to determine who died and the circumstances that led to the deadly crash.
