A person has died following a two-vehicle crash in Surrey.

Around 5 a.m. Sunday, police said they received a report of a serious vehicle crash at the intersection of 152 Street and Guildford Dr.

When police arrived at the scene they found two sedan cars severely damaged. One of the vehicle’s occupants was declared dead at the scene, according to police.

A nearby resident heard the crash which happened just outside his home.

“I was asleep and at 5 a.m. we heard a crash. It was a horrendous crash. We usually hear crashes here but it was around 10 seconds long, so I knew it was bad,” said Andrew White.

“We get regular crashes (on this street). People come flying down here — (drivers) don’t pay attention to their speeds at all.”

“The Integrated Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service has been called to assist the Surrey RCMP Criminal Collision Investigation Team with the investigation,” Sgt. Martin Neveu said. “Traffic in the area will be affected for an undetermined amount of time as officers continue their investigation.”

At this point, the condition of other vehicle occupants is unknown.

Global News has reached out to Surrey RCMP and BCEHS for more information.

Anyone with possible information, including CCTV and dashcam footage, is asked to contact Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.
