Honda sought after 'major vehicle incident' that closed Sea to Sky Highway northbound
Authorities are trying to locate a damaged white Honda following a "major vehicle incident" that closed the northbound lanes of the Sea to Sky Highway on Tuesday.
Mounties asked the public to keep an eye out for the Honda, which has rear-end damage and is missing part of its rear bumper.
"If seen, please call police and do not approach," Squamish RCMP said on Twitter.
Authorities have released few details about what happened, but said the incident was reported around 11:30 a.m. in Lions Bay, a small community located between Vancouver and Squamish.
B.C. Highway Cams captured a massive lineup of vehicles on the Sea to Sky Highway in the aftermath, with some drivers standing on the road.
The RCMP's Integrated Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service has been dispatched to the scene, located between Lions Bay Avenue and Brunswick Beach Road.
Hours after the crash, northbound traffic started moving again when vehicles were diverted into one of the southbound lanes.
Squamish RCMP said the barriers were being reinstalled and that the highway was fully reopening at around 7:30 p.m.
