On Saturday, July 12, 2025, at approximately 7:10 p.m. a Toyota Echo was travelling eastbound on 97 Avenue at 101 Street when it reportedly experienced a mechanical failure. As a result, it was stopped between two lanes at this intersection, just east of 101 Street. It was then reported that a Honda CR-V pulled behind the stopped Toyota. Following this, a Kia Seltos SUV parked behind the Honda and activated its hazard lights. As the 42-year old male driver of the Kia Seltos exited his vehicle and walked in front of it, a Dodge Ram truck struck the Kia, throwing the 42-year old male on to the roadway.
The 42-year-old male driver of the Kia Seltos was taken to hospital by EMS with non-life-threatening injuries.
The EPS’ Major Collisions Investigation Section (MCIS) continues to investigate.
