Burnaby RCMP are looking for witnesses after a Burnaby woman suffered a broken knee when she was hit by a car last week.
The collision happened just after 10 p.m. on Dec. 17. The victim was crossing at Beta Avenue and Ridgelawn Drive when an oncoming car hit her, according to Burnaby Staff Sgt. Rob Marks.
From what the victim told police, she had her head down and when she looked up “that’s when she was struck by a vehicle,” Marks said.
The vehicle fled the scene before police and paramedics arrived. No one saw the license plate number, and investigators don’t have much information at this time other than the vehicle was silver and heading eastbound on Ridgelawn Drive, Marks added.
Anyone with information on the collision is asked to contact the Burnaby RCMP at 604-294-7922 and quote file #2014-58317.
