Four people were taken to hospital Saturday evening following a multi-vehicle crash on Main Street involving a “suspected stolen pick-up truck.”
Vancouver Police said it happened just just after 5 p.m., officers tried to pull over a suspected stolen pick-up truck on Main Street near Pender Street, but the driver fled south, and out of concern for public safety, officers decided not to pursue the vehicle.
A short time later, the pick-up collided with a white Ford Focus on Main Street at Prior Street before bouncing into vehicles parked along the east side of Main Street.

The Independent Investigation Office has been notified and is monitoring the investigation.
