Police in Burnaby, B-C are seeking witnesses and video footage after a car hit a pedestrian on Saturday afternoon, sending a man to hospital in critical condition.

Burnaby R-C-M-P say the crash happened at 1:50 p-m near Imperial Street and Patterson Avenue, when an eastbound car veered onto the sidewalk and hit the 19-year-old victim.

The victim remains in hospital in serious condition, and police have ruled out impaired driving as a factor.

The driver of the vehicle stayed at the scene and spoke with police, who are now asking anyone who may have witnessed the crash or with dash-cam footage to contact investigators.
