PRINCE GEORGE—An 18-year-old is in hospital, suffering life threatening injuries after being hit by a vehicle over the weekend.

Prince George RCMP say that on Sunday, May 31, at around 5 p.m. officers responded to a report of a pedestrian involved collision on the corner of 1st Ave. and Ospika Boulevard.

Police and other emergency personnel arrive on scene to find an 18-year-old male suffering serious, and life threatening injuries; he was transported to hospital for treatment.

The 22-year-old female driver of the mid-sized vehicle remained on scene and cooperated with police.

RCMP do not believe that alcohol or drugs were a factor. The female’s car was seized, and evidence from the scene collected. Police says that all indications are that the pedestrian was in a marked crosswalk when the southbound vehicle collided with him.
