Peace Regional RCMP looking for dashcam footage, witnesses of Highway 688 collision

The Peace Regional RCMP is seeking help from the public during their investigation into a recent traffic collision.

According to police, on February 8th, members of the Peace Regional RCMP responded to reports of a collision on Highway 688, between Township Roads 845 and 844.

Law enforcement quickly attended and worked with the Northern Sunrise County Fire Department, and EMS, assisted by the RCMP’s Collision Reconstruction Analyst.
