Southwest Division patrol members responded to a collision near 86 Avenue and 104 Street at approximately 10:30 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 2, 2016, where they found a 34-year-old female pedestrian lying on the ground in a marked crosswalk.
Witnesses told police the 34-year-old complainant and a friend were walking eastbound across 104 Street at a marked crosswalk when the complainant was struck by a 2008 Jeep Liberty in the far west lane.
It was reported to police the Jeep Liberty had stopped to let the pedestrians cross 104 Street, when it was allegedly struck from behind by another vehicle, a 2016 White GMC Savanna, pushing it forward where it collided with the first pedestrian.
The female complainant was treated and transported to hospital by paramedics with very serious, but non-life threatening injuries. Neither driver was injured, though both vehicles sustained significant damage.
Officers from the EPS Major Collisions Investigation Unit have since taken over the investigation. Although the investigation is preliminary at this time, officers do not believe alcohol or drugs were factors in the collision.
Charges, however, are pending against the driver of the GMC Savanna.
Anyone who witnessed this collision or who has information is encouraged to contact the EPS at 780-423-4567or #377 from a mobile phone. Anonymous information can also be submitted to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or online at www.tipsubmit.com/start.htm.
