An elderly person is in critical condition after being struck by a van at Minoru Boulevard and Alderbridge Way Wednesday afternoon, according to Richmond RCMP.
In clear daylight the victim appears to have been crossing Minoru at the three-way intersection near Art Knapp Plantland. The person was struck by a Pontiac minivan.
The van was taped off and all that remained was a hat sitting on top of the hood.
Police described the incident as a “serious motor vehicle crash” and blocked traffic for most of the late afternoon and evening as the Integrated Collision Analyst Reconstruction Team investigates.
Witnesses can call the non emergency line at 604-278-1212.
