Nelson Police is asking anyone witnessing an accident at the intersection of Vernon and Baker Streets Saturday to come forward to speak with police.
Nelson Police said on Saturday, March 4, 2023, officers from Nelson Police and BC Highway Patrol responded to a two-vehicle collision.
Nelson Police said early findings of the investigation revealed that both vehicles were travelling west along Vernon Street when the first vehicle, a white 2010 Subaru Forrester, came to a stop at the intersection.
