Update: Police seek information in hit-and-run involving 10-year-old

We continue to investigate a hit-and-run that occurred last month leaving a 10-year-old boy with serious injuries.

Thanks to tips from the public, we have located the Dodge Ram pick-up truck believed to be involved in the incident. The driver is cooperating with police and the investigation is ongoing, charges have not been laid at this time.

We are now searching for the driver of an additional vehicle police believe was travelling behind the pick-up truck at the time of the incident. The driver may have witnessed or may have information related to the incident.

On Friday, June 23, 2023, at approximately 8:30 p.m., it is believed a blue Dodge Ram pick-up truck pulling a utility trailer was travelling east on Savanna Boulevard N.E.

At the same time, it is believed the victim was riding an e-scooter along Savanna Boulevard N.E., in the same direction as the pick-up truck when he was struck near the intersection of Savanna Gardens N.E.

The driver of the truck did not stop or remain at the scene.

At the time, Good Samaritans assisted the boy as he walked home, where EMS later arrived. The boy was transported to hospital in serious condition, since then, his condition has improved, and he is recovering at home.

Police are looking to speak the driver of a vehicle described as a black, four-door sedan, believed to be a Chrysler 200, as the driver may have important information to help further our investigation.  

We continue to investigate the circumstances of the collision. Anyone who witnessed the incident or may have dashcam footage, is asked to contact police by calling 403-266-1234. Tips can also be submitted anonymously to Crime Stoppers through any of the following methods:
