Pedestrian involved collision leaves 22-year-old man seriously injured

The Prince George RCMP responded to a vehicle collision involving a pedestrian at the corner of Ospika Boulevard and Davis Road yesterday (Sunday).

According to police, the incident occurred just after 4:30 p.m. where a 22-year-old man was taken to hospital with serious injuries.

They are not believed to be life-threatening and the 73-year-old male driver remained on scene.

Alcohol is not believed to be a factor.

Cpl. Craig Douglass told MyPGNow.com the Ford SUV involved in the crash will undergo an inspection, something that’s not uncommon in these situations.

“Most of the time there isn’t but we undergo these inspections to ensure that a mechanical malfunction didn’t have something to do with the collision.”

The investigation is on-going.
