UPDATE - Pedestrian struck by pick-up truck on Monday
Following a news release issued yesterday, North Bay Police are continuing to investigate a fail to remain collision involving a pedestrian. Police are currently reviewing video footage obtained by mall security.
A female pedestrian in her sixties was struck by the mirror of a pick-up truck at approximately
7 p.m. on Monday November 24th while she was walking across the southbound lane of the crosswalk in front of the main entrance of department store at a shopping mall on Fisher. She fell to the ground as a result of the collision and a concerned citizen transported her to hospital to seek medical attention for her non-life-threatening injuries.
The driver stopped briefly, before fleeing the scene, travelling south through the parking lot to the Fisher Street exit and then proceeding northbound on the by-pass toward Trout Lake Road.
