A 17-year-old man has been killed in an early morning crash Saturday in West Vancouver

WEST VANCOUVER (NEWS 1130) — A 17-year-old boy from North Vancouver has died in a collision Saturday, according to the West Vancouver Police Department.

Sergeant Paul Faris has confirmed a single-vehicle crash occurred on Marine drive near Glen-Eagles around 4:00 a.m.

In a statement, the North Vancouver School District says the 17-year-old was previously a student at Mountainside Secondary and Argyle secondary schools.

“Our hearts go out to the family and friends during this incredibly difficult time. Staff and parents at both schools have been advised. Students will be advised on Monday. Counsellors from the School District Critical Incident Team will be present on Monday at both schools to assist students individually or in small groups,” says a spokesperson.

A passenger, a 19-year-old woman, has been taken to the hospital with unknown injuries.

Speed may have been a factor in the deadly crash, but Faris says, “it is too early to know a definite cause.”
