BURNABY RCMP’s Criminal Collision Investigation Team is continuing to investigate a fatal hit-and-run collision that resulted in the death of a motorcyclist.

On Saturday at 9:45 p.m., Burnaby RCMP frontline officers responded to a report of a hit-and-run collision at Canada Way and Imperial Street. A motorcyclist was transported to hospital where he was pronounced dead.
