At approximately 3:20 a.m. on Monday, August 4, 2025, a 41-year-old male was cycling on the roadway near 42 Street and 113 Avenue in the Beverly Heights neighbourhood. A dark-coloured SUV was seen in the same area, driving erratically, and struck the cyclist before it sped off. The SUV was last seen travelling eastbound on 114 Avenue from 42 Street.
The injured cyclist was treated on scene by EMS for what initially appeared to be non-life-threatening injuries and was transferred to hospital as a precaution. Unfortunately, while on route to the hospital, the cyclist’s condition worsened, though he currently remains in hospital in stable condition.
The EPS’ Major Collisions Investigation Section (MCIS) is investigating and releasing security camera footage of what is believed to be the SUV involved in the collision. Unfortunately, no make and model of the SUV have been confirmed at this time.
Security camera footage of suspect vehicle
Police also believe a passenger inside the vehicle filmed the collision, which was later published to social media.
“It’s incredibly disturbing to see such disregard for life captured on video simply for online entertainment,” says Acting Staff Sergeant Richard Windover of the EPS Traffic Services Branch. “We’re asking anyone who can recognize the voices or identities of the individuals in this video to contact police immediately so we can advance this investigation.”
