The collision, which involved equipment loaded on a truck striking the Peardonville Road overpass in Abbotsford yesterday, was captured on video. Highway Patrol says though there were no injuries, a car was struck by some debris from the overpass.

The victim's condition has since stabilized, and police say it appears he was attacked by multiple male suspects who arrived in a taxi and confronted the victim before the attack took place.
