Burnaby RCMP is seeking witnesses and dash-cam video of a pedestrian hit and run that has left the victim with non-life-threatening injuries.

On March 8, 2024, at approximately 6:45 p.m., the victim was crossing Marine Drive in the 5400-block (by the Hindu Temple), when she was struck by a vehicle. The driver of the vehicle reportedly stopped and initially assisted the victim, but then left the scene without exchanging information.

If you have photos or video of the incident or the aftermath of the incident, we would really like to hear from you, said Cpl Mike Kalanj with Burnaby RCMP. You might have captured the SUV on video or in a photo before or after the incident and not even know it.

If you have dash-cam video on Marine Drive, between Patterson Avenue and Gilley Avenue, or any of the north/south avenues in the area, such as Patterson, Sussex, Nelson, Royal Oak or Gilley, between 6:30 p.m. and 7:15 p.m., on Friday, March 8, 2024, or if you have video or photos of the incident, please contact Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999.
