Toddler dies after he and mom hit by car while crossing street in Coquitlam, B.C.

BY , Oct 7, 2020 12:07 AM - REPORT AN ERROR

Police say a toddler has died after he and his mother were hit by a car while crossing a street in Coquitlam, B.C.

The two were hit at about 6:30 p.m. Monday in the Westwood Plateau neighbourhood. A statement from Coquitlam RCMP says the boy was two-years-old and his mother, who was also hurt, is 36.

Cpl. Michael McLaughlin says the investigation is just beginning but officers have already gathered clear dash-cam video and independent witness statements.

He says neither speed nor impairment appear to be factors. Police said earlier that the driver remained at the scene and was co-operating.
