Police respond to a crash on the Stanley Park Causeway on Sunday, June 15, 2025. (CTV News) Nearly a month after a serious crash involving a luxury sports car shut down the Lions Gate Bridge for several hours, Vancouver police are issuing a public appeal for information in the case. The crash occurred just after 4 a.m. on Sunday, June 15, closing the Stanley Park Causeway and the Lions Gate Bridge for several hours while police investigated. A black Chevrolet Corvette collided with a white Ford F150, sending both drivers to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, the Vancouver Police Department said in a statement Thursday, more than three weeks after the crash. Video from the scene shows the Corvette on the wrong side of the fence that separates the causeway's pedestrian sidewalks from the road. The sports car's front end is mangled and covered in a white residue, possibly from a fire extinguisher. Causeway crash A crash closed the Lions Gate Bridge for hours early on the morning of Sunday, June 15, 2025. The F150 appears to be a commercial vehicle. It looks to have lost part of its truck bed, and a pile of debris – including a road sign and several orange traffic cones – can be seen lying in the road. The VPD did not respond to CTV News requests for information on the day of the crash. In its statement Thursday, the department said it is looking for additional witnesses and dash-cam video of the incident. 'As part of the ongoing investigation, officers have reviewed dash-cam footage from a taxi that captured a white Tesla driving on the causeway around the time of the crash,' said Const. Tania Visintin, in the release. 'We are asking the driver of that Tesla, and anyone else who may have witnessed the collision or has relevant video footage, to contact police.' Police said they have ruled out drug and alcohol impairment as contributing factors in the collision. Anyone with information about the crash should call investigators at 604-717-4021, police said.
