One man is dead after his car struck a tree earlier this morning.
Burnaby RCMP say a male driver in his 20s was travelling on Goring Street at about 9:20 a.m. when his vehicle went “off road” and hit a tree, killing him instantly.
Police are in the early stages of their investigation and can’t definitively say what caused the car to go off road, but Burnaby RCMP is reporting that speed and alcohol may be factors in the crash.
Officers are on scene at Goring Street near Holdom Avenue and are expected to be there for some time. Goring Street is closed until further notice.
