The Prince George RCMP are investigating a motor vehicle incident that left that sent one pedestrian to hospital in serious condition.
Police say on Sunday, just before 12:30 a.m., a man was struck in northbound lane on the 1700-block of the Hart Highway, described as wearing a reddish coloured hoody and dark pants, and was carrying a red backpack at the time of the incident.
Corporal Jennifer Cooper says they’re looking for a truck believed to have been involved in the incident.
“It is described as an early 2000’s Ford F150 Supercrew, that is a two-tone navy and grey with aftermarket running boards and oversized tires.”
Cooper said at the time of the incident, the northbound lanes of the highway were closed for several hours with drivers being redirected down North Nechako Road as investigators analyzed the scene and spoke with witnesses.
Anyone with information about the truck, or who may have footage of the incident or of the highway conditions of the time of the incident is asked to call the Prince George RCMP at 250-561-3300.
