Police looking for hit & run suspect vehicle

North Vancouver RCMP is looking for the public’s assistance in locating the suspect vehicle involved in a hit and run.

On May 22nd, 2024 at 12:00 p.m. North Vancouver RCMP received a report from fire crews advising of a vehicle with severe damage on the Fern Street overpass. Officers attended and spoke with an elderly driver of a silver Honda Civic. It’s alleged the Civic was travelling westbound in the right lane on Mount Seymour Parkway approaching the Fern Street overpass when another vehicle side swiped her vehicle, causing it to spin out and jump the median. The Civic came to a rest on the oncoming lanes of the Fern Street overpass.

The elderly driver of the Civic was in shock but fortunately un-injured. The driver that struck the Civic never stopped and continued driving. The Civic was severally damaged and likely not reparable.

We’re asking anyone who was driving on or near the Fern street overpass around noon on May 22nd with dash cam to come forward, said Constable Mansoor Sahak, Media Relations Officer for the North Vancouver RCMP. The elderly driver is on fixed income and we’re hoping to hold the driver responsible for the accident accountable.

Police are asking anyone who may have witnessed this incident or who knows the identity of the suspect vehicle to call the North Vancouver RCMP at 604-985-1311 and quote file #24-9912.
