The victim in a fatal head on crash near Logan Lake Thursday has been identified online as six-year-old Ember Young.
A GoFundMe fundraiser is hoping to raise $5,000 to help the family with funeral costs.
BC Highway Patrol says the crash between a passenger vehicle and a utility vehicle happened just after noon on Highway 97C near Foley Road, south of Logan Lake. While spokesperson Cpl. Mike Halskov told NL News the victim was under the age of ten, he could not release any other details.
“The cause of the collision remains under investigation however, at this time, there is no evidence to suggest any criminality as a contributing factor,” Halskov added.
According to the fundraiser, Ember’s baby sister, Hailey, and mother, Jordan, were seriously injured in the crash.
“I am setting this up on Jordan’s behalf as she is in no condition to do it herself,” Macy Jarry, Ember’s aunt wrote online. “If anyone can help make the financial impact of this situation even a little bit easier on the family, it’s the least we can do in such a devastating time.”
Anyone with information about this crash, including those with any dash cam footage, is being asked to call BC Highway Patrol in Merritt at 250-378-4262 and reference file 2021-5574.
