Officers say a police vehicle was involved in the crash, and a 29-year-old female pedestrian was struck in the incident.
Once on scene, EMS quickly transported the victim to a trauma centre with life-threatening injuries.
Central Park Drive was closed between Howden Boulevard and Hilldale Crescent for an investigation, and drivers were asked to avoid the area.
The SIU investigates cases involving police that result in a death or serious injury, or if a firearm is discharged at a person.
