Charged in fatal crash

A driver has been charged in a fatal crash that killed an Abbotsford nurse on Sunday.

Nicolas Karvouniaris is charged with dangerous driving causing death and two counts of dangerous driving causing bodily harm in the Surrey crash, which also injured two others in nurse Sarah Dillon's SUV.

Karvouniaris was allegedly behind the wheel of a 2016 Jeep Cherokee that crossed into oncoming traffic on 88 Avenue, hitting Dhillon's Ford Escape.

Dhillon, 50, worked at Abbotsford Regional Hospital.

Karvouniaris' driving record contains five infractions for speeding, two for driving contrary to restrictions, and one for running a red light.

Dhillon is survived by her husband and three children.

A prayer service was held for her Wednesday night at Northview Community Church.
