Police seek dashcam footage in serious-injury collision

Our Traffic Section continues to investigate after a serious-injury collision occurred over the weekend, leaving a man with life-altering injuries.

At approximately 3:50 p.m., on Saturday, June 1, 2024, a two-vehicle collision occurred in the southbound lanes of Stoney Trail N.W., south of the bridge crossing over the Bow River.

At the time, it is believed a white 2020 Ford F-350 driven by a man in his 40s with a male passenger in his 20s, was towing a green and yellow utility trailer and was stopped along the road. It is believed both the driver and passenger were outside of the vehicle trying to re-secure the trailer to the truck, which had become loose.

At the same time, a white 2007 Chevrolet Express van, driven by a man in his 40s, was also travelling southbound along Stoney Trail N.W. when the van struck the rear of the trailer, causing the trailer to be pushed forward, seriously injuring the younger man who was caught between the truck and the trailer.

The driver of the truck and the van both suffered serious injuries, and all three individuals were transported to hospital. 

Alcohol and drugs are not believed to be factors in this collision.

Excessive speed is not believed to be a factor in this collision.
