1 man dead, 1 seriously injured after motorcycles crash in Surrey suburb
A crash between two people riding motorcycles in Surrey’s Cloverdale neighbourhood turned fatal Thursday night, according to Mounties.

On Friday morning, Const. Sarbjit Sangha told CTV News that the other driver remains in hospital and “may have life altering injury.”
