  • Pedestrian badly injured in Langley collision

Langley Mounties are hoping someone can help identify a pedestrian badly injured in a collision on Monday.

Police say a woman was walking at dusk on 268th Street at 26-A Avenue when she was hit by a pickup truck.

The driver stayed and gave first aid until first responders arrived, but she remains in critical condition in hospital and isn’t able to identify herself.

Police say she is of Asian or Filipino descent, in her early 70s, is five feet tall, weighing about 110 pounds, and was wearing a black jacket with black shoes and pulling a foldable shopping cart.
