Surrey RCMP is advising the public that one female is in custody after failing to stop for police and driving dangerously in multiple cities.

On January 16, 2024 at approximately 1:15 pm, the Surrey RCMP Community Response Unit attempted to conduct a traffic stop with a vehicle in south Surrey. RCMP Helicopter Air 1 became engaged in locating the vehicle, which failed to stop for police and continued to drive recklessly. The vehicle, a green Toyota Corolla, continued to be monitored by Air 1 as it travelled through the cities of Surrey, Langley and Abbotsford.

The vehicle returned to Langley and collided with a civilian vehicle near the intersection of 208 Street and 51b Avenue. The female driver was arrested by Lower Mainland Integrated Police Dog Services (PDS), and treated at scene by EHS for minor injuries. Thankfully, the occupant of the civilian vehicle was not injured.

Motorists are encouraged to avoid the area as delays are expected while police continue to process the scene. If you have any information about this incident, please call Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.
