Investigators appealing for more witnesses to pedestrian collision

SURREY RCMP is asking to speak with witnesses of a collision between a pedestrian and car in the City Centre area of Surrey on January 29.

At approximately 10:30 p.m., a 40-year-old man was struck crossing Old Yale Road near the shopping mall access road by an eastbound Honda Civic. The victim sustained serious injuries and was transported to hospital. The pedestrian was not crossing in a marked crosswalk at the time.

The driver of the Civic, a 60-year-old man, remained at scene and cooperated with police. Investigators do not believe that speed or impairment are factors in the collision.

The Surrey RCMP Criminal Collision Investigation Team (CCIT) is conducting this investigation and believe there may be more witnesses that haven’t spoken with police or may possibly have dash-cam video of the occurrence.

Anyone with information about this collision is asked to call Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502, or contact Crime Stoppers, if they wish to remain anonymous, at 1-800-222-8477 or www.solvecrime.ca
