One person is in critical condition after an “unknown object” went through the window of their vehicle on the freeway in Burnaby on Thursday.
The incident snarled traffic on the freeway, with the route closed to westbound traffic at the Willingdon exit.
The BC Highway Patrol said investigators were on scene searching for the object, and that the driver of a white sedan had been taken to hospital.
Drivers are being told to avoid the route, and people already on the freeway are being told to exit at Kensington Avenue.
The RCMP Lower Mainland Integrated Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service has deployed to the scene, and warned of “significant delays” related to the investigation “for several hours.”
