Suspect Arrested After Fatal Hit-and-Run Collision
File 2025-19965 (SU)
The RCMP Surrey Police Operations Support Unit’s Criminal Collision Investigation Team (SPOSU CCIT), and the Lower Mainland District Integrated Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service (ICARS) are investigating a late afternoon hit-and-run collision that has resulted in one child being killed and two other children being injured in Surrey’s Fraser Heights neighbourhood.
At approximately 4:11 pm on April 13, 2025, police received reports of three children pedestrians being struck by a vehicle in the intersection of 164 Street and 108 Avenue, Surrey. The driver that struck the children did not remain at the scene. Surrey Fire Service firefighters and BCEHS paramedics attended the scene and despite life-saving medical interventions, a six-year-old girl died.
A seven-year-old girl sustained upper body injuries, and a 16-year-old boy sustained injuries to his leg and torso. Both were transported to hospital for further evaluation and treatment and neither child’s injuries are thought to be life-threatening at this time.
The suspect vehicle, a grey pickup truck, was last seen driving eastbound on 104 Avenue from 164 Street. It was located shortly after 5 pm by RCMP SPOSU officers in the area of 101 Avenue and 160 Street after it had reportedly hit at least one parked vehicle. The driver of the suspect vehicle was located, arrested, and remains in custody as the investigation continues.
SPOSU CCIT has been called in to lead the investigation and ICARS has been called in to support the investigation. At this early stage, the cause of the collision remains unknown, but it is believed alcohol may be a contributing factor.
The intersection of 164 Street and 108 Avenue is likely to be closed well into the night as investigators examine the scene and collect evidence. Motorists and pedestrians are asked to find alternate routes and avoid the area.
If you witnessed the collision or have any information, including CCTV or dashcam footage, please call Surrey Police Service at 604-599-0502 and quote file 2025-19965 (SU).
