Officers say that the 69-year-old female pedestrian was struck and sustained serious injuries.

“Despite lifesaving efforts by first responders, later succumbed to those injuries,” DPD superintendent Jody Waldron said.

The driver remained on the scene and is cooperating with police.

While the investigation of the incident is ongoing, police say that impairment is not a factor.

The DPD advises drivers to avoid the area as road closures are currently in effect.

Witnesses, including people with dash-cam footage, of the incident are asked to contact police at 604-946-4411.
