The Abbotsford Police Department (APD) is trying to locate a driver who was involved in a hit-and-run collision that critically injured a 58-year-old female pedestrian on Tuesday night (Sept. 29).

“AbbyPD is asking for the driver of the vehicle, who is aware of what occurred, to do the right thing and come forward and speak with investigators,” Dyck said.
