Delta Police are seeking witnesses to a hit and run that occurred yesterday evening in Tsawwassen.

According to officials, a “middle-aged woman” was crossing 12th Avenue at a crosswalk at the 5500 block when she was hit by a vehicle.  She was transported to hospital with what are described as serious injuries.

“Witnesses relayed that a Ford Ranger pickup truck, possibly dark green in colour, struck the woman,” said Cris Leykauf, public affairs coordinator for Delta Police.

Leykauf said the driver initially stopped, but then “allegedly drove around the woman and fled the scene.”

Now, police are in the process of speaking to witnesses and gathering evidence from the scene.

Anyone with further information is asked to contact Delta Police at 604-946-4411 or, if they wish to remain anonymous, contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, text “BCTIP” to 274637, or leave a tip online at solvecrime.ca.
