Abbotsford’s police department is now grieving with two families after it was revealed the deputy chief’s son has died in a car crash.
It happened early Monday morning in Maple Ridge.
The car ended up on its side in the 21200 block of Lougheed Highway around 2:30 a.m.
The single occupant, 19-year-old Aiden Serr, was transported to hospital in serious condition but passed away a short time later.
Abbotsford police Chief Bob Rich told Global News the family is asking for privacy and that his department is supporting them in every way they can.
Meanwhile, a candlelight vigil was held for Const. John Davidson in Abbotsford Monday night, one week after he was killed while on duty.
Davidson, 53, had been a police officer for 24 years in Canada and the U.K.
