Vancouver crash leaves man with life-threatening injuries [Video]

Police in Vancouver are appealing for witnesses to come forward after a serious crash Thursday left one man in hospital with life-threatening injuries.

The two-vehicle crash occurred around 3 p.m. at the intersection of Quebec Street and East 41st Avenue.

Investigators say a grey Honda Civic collided with a grey Dodge Caravan, causing the car to spin around and strike a light pole.

The Vancouver Police Department says the Honda driver, described in a statement Friday as a man in his 20s, was extricated from the vehicle and taken to hospital with life-threatening injuries, while the driver of the minivan was not seriously hurt.

Detectives believe the collision occurred when the minivan driver was making a left turn from East 41st Avenue to head south on Quebec Street while the Honda driver was travelling east on 41st Avenue straight through the intersection.
