BC Highway Patrol says it is making progress investigating a collision that killed a man in Fanny Bay.

Police are now looking for witnesses who can fill in details about the minutes and hours before the fatal collision.

On July 31, 2025, just after 4:00 p.m., on Highway 19A northbound near Fanny Bay, a black 2015 GMC Sierra Denali pickup that was towing a white Minilite Recreational Vehicle (RV) collided with multiple vehicles and killed a man who was standing at the side of the road. The driver was arrested for impaired driving causing death.

Police say anyone who was at scene in the immediate aftermath of the collision may have vital information.

They are asking for people who may have interacted with the driver of a black  Denali pickup with a black canopy or saw the driver doing anything concerning in the hours leading up to the fatal crash, to contact them.

Police are also interested in dash-camera video or security video that faced Highway 19A between Fanny Bay Wharf and the Rosewall log sort.

Southbound drivers in particular may have witnessed important evidence before the collision.
