Traffic was stopped on the Trans-Canada Highway westbound after a fiery crash at 248th Street Monday afternoon.
The highway was closed at 264th Street as emergency crews dealt with three vehicles on fire. Ambulances were in the eastbound lanes attending to people.
“It looks like one vehicle rear ended another and ruptured a fuel tank, and caused a fuel spread which then ignited all three vehicles,” said Russ Jenkins, Langley Township deputy fire chief.
