MARA, B.C. — Highway 97A south of Sicamous has been blocked for a large portion of the morning after a crash involving a semi.

In an email to CFJC Today, BC RCMP Traffic Services spokesman Cpl. Mike Halskov says the crash took place near Mara at about 9:45 a.m.

Halskov says he can’t confirm reports of injuries or fatalities, but notes it appears to have involved a semi and a passenger vehicle.

A photo posted to social media shows the semi tractor off the road toward the bank of Mara Lake.
