A single motor vehicle collision north of Campbell River near Brown's Bay tragically claimed the lives of two central coast residents on March 12th, 2025.
At approximately 3 pm, a newer model Honda SUV that was travelling southbound on the North Island Highway left the road colliding with trees. Four occupants were in the vehicle at the time of the accident. Two passengers suffered minor injuries and were transported to local hospital while the driver and another passenger succumbed to injuries at the scene.
The accident is still under investigation by the Campbell River RCMP, but it is believed that a significant hailstorm in the area at the time was a contributing factor.
"The Campbell River RCMP wishes to offer our sincerest condolences to the families and the community of the victims," said Cst Maury Tyre. "We appreciate the public and media providing them time and space in these difficult times."
