Nov 12, 2026 | 1:13 PM

A person was hurt in a crash on Highway 6 in Vernon Thursday morning.

B.C. Emergency Health Services said paramedics responded to the intersection of Highway 6 and 25th Avenue, next to Polson Park, for reports of a collision at 7:29 a.m. November 12.

“An ambulance with primary care paramedics responded to the scene,” Brian Twaites, B.C. EHS’s Paramedic Public Information Officer, told Vernon Matters.

“Paramedics provided emergency medical treatment to one patient, who was taken to hospital in stable condition.”

Vernon North Okanagan RCMP did not immediately respond for comment with further details about the incident.

However, unconfirmed reports from a Beach Radio listener indicated the collision appeared to have involved a vehicle and a pedestrian.
