  "account": "Police in Delta, B.C., are investigating a nine-vehicle collision on the Alex Fraser Bridge that resulted in two individuals being hospitalized with serious injuries. The incident occurred shortly after midnight on Friday, with officers responding to the scene in the southbound lanes of the bridge spanning the Fraser River between Delta and New Westminster. Witnesses reported that an initial collision between two vehicles triggered a chain reaction crash involving the remaining seven vehicles. While impaired driving has been ruled out, speed may have contributed to the accident. Police had the bridge closed for approximately four hours to conduct their investigation and remove the debris.",
