“One ambulance with primary care paramedics and one ambulance with advanced care paramedics responded to the scene. Paramedics provided emergency medical treatment to one patient who was transported to hospital in stable condition,” a spokesperson said in an email.
Only one vehicle was involved, according to police.
“A single vehicle left the road at highway speed and rolled over. The driver and lone occupant appears to have minor injuries. There were no overt indications of criminality at the initial scene, but the investigation into the cause is ongoing,” a spokesperson for the B.C. Highway Patrol said in an email.
