According to Emergency Health Services, paramedics across B.C. have responded to 159 incidents so far this summer, up from 138 last year.

“The main reason is the tainted supply, it's toxic,” Dr. Mema told Global News about why overdoses are spiking.

Police say officers were called to assist emergency health services in the Lumby area on the afternoon of Saturday, April 4.

In the end, the traveller was determined not to be seriously ill.

Police say it was raining heavily at the time of the crash, creating slick road conditions. 

It was not immediately clear how far the man fell, or what preceded the incident.

The incident happened at Kelowna’s City Park on Sunday afternoon.

Three people have been taken to hospital after two serious crashes within an hour of each other in Langley Monday.

Witnesses and officials at the scene tell Global News the man was attempting to save his two dogs on the tracks when he was clipped by the train.

Vancouver police are searching for a driver who left the scene after hitting and injuring a cyclist in the downtown core Thursday afternoon.
