Two men in their early 20s have died and another has serious injuries after a truck they were in crashed while on a forest service road near Mission, B.C., Thursday night.

Mounties were called to the Norrish Creek Forest Service Road just before 9 p.m. after a motorist was reportedly flagged down on the road by a man who had been injured in the crash, Mission RCMP said in a statement. He had been a passenger in the truck travelling with two friends when it crashed, police said.

Mission Search and Rescue were called in to assist with locating the truck, which was found in the waters of a creek approximately 300 feet down an embankment.

Both men remaining inside died as a result of the crash, while the third suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries, the statement said. All three were 22-year-old Abbotsford residents who had been camping with friends in the area.

The cause of the crash is still being investigated, and the Integrated Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service has been called in, alongside Mission RCMP’s Traffic Services Unit.

Anyone who saw a red Ford Ranger with a black Canopy in the Norrish Creek area on July 17 is being advised to call police via 604-826-7161, and quote file number 25-8509.
