Man charged in fatal hit-and-run collision in city’s northwest

We have charged a man in his 20s in relation to a fatal hit-and-run collision that occurred earlier this week on Stoney Trail N.W.

At approximately 11:49 p.m., on Tuesday, April 1, 2025, a collision occurred in the southbound lanes of Stoney Trail N.W., near the bridge deck of Nose Hill Drive N.W. A white 2019 Toyota Corolla, driven by a woman in her 50s, was struck by an unknown vehicle, believed to be a semi-truck and trailer combination, which fled the scene. A roadway maintenance truck with two occupants arrived shortly after and began providing medical aid to the woman.

Moments later, a black 2018 RAM truck, driven by a 21-year-old man with a passenger, collided with a post and cable barrier, ultimately striking the woman and then hitting the rear of the maintenance truck. The woman was transported to hospital but was pronounced deceased upon arrival.

Following an investigation by our Traffic Unit, with assistance from other areas within the Calgary Police Service and from the public, a semi-truck was located yesterday in Rocky View County and was identified as being the vehicle that left the scene of the collision.

As a result, the driver of the semi-truck, Gaganpreet SINGH, 25, has been charged with hit-and-run and hit-and-run causing death.

SINGH is scheduled to next appear in court on Friday, April 4, 2025.
