MONTREAL — An 81-year-old man is in critical condition after he was hit by a car on Queen Mary street in Côte-des-Neiges around 12:20 p.m. Monday.
He was struck by a car as he crossed the busy road near Westbury street.
“The vehicle was heading east and it collided with the pedestrian,”said Constable Jean-Pierre Brabant with the Montreal police.
The victim suffered serious head injuries from the impact and was taken to hospital.
He is in critical, but stable condition.
