Young woman killed in fatal crash in Stave Lake
WATCH: A deadly accident in Mission this weekend has killed a young woman. Four people, all under the age of 20, were on their way home from a party near Stave Lake, when they lost control and crashed. As Julia Foy reports, speed and bad weather may be to blame – Mar 5, 2016

One person is dead and three others were injured following a high-speed crash in Mission early Saturday morning.

The crash happened just before 2 a.m. near Stave Lake, an area popular with off-roaders.

Mission RCMP Cpl. Patrick Mehain says a 1991 Nissan Sentra was driving down Burma Road early when the driver failed to navigate a turn and collided into a tree.

A female passenger in the back seat of the car was pronounced dead at the scene. Three others were transported to hospital.

RCMP believe speed was a factor in the crash.

Burma Road is a gravel road full of twists and turns, and it was pouring rain at the time of the crash.
