VANCOUVER Police are investigating two collisions that sent two people to hospital on Wednesday morning.
Just after 7:30 a.m., the driver of a grey Dodge Durango failed to stop for police on Burrard Street in the downtown core. It is alleged the driver hit a pedestrian near Howe and Hastings streets. The vehicle continued to flee, colliding into another vehicle near Robson and Cambie streets.
The driver of the Durango has not been located and officers are actively investigating.
Two people, a woman in her 30s and a woman in her 50s, were taken to hospital for serious, but non-life-threatening injuries.
VPD’s Collision investigation Unit will be in the area most of the day collecting evidence from the two crime scenes. The Independent Investigations Office of BC has been notified, due to the fact that the collisions occurred following an attempted traffic stop.
Anyone with information or dash-cam footage is asked to call investigators at 604-717-3012.
