A Manitoba teen was seriously hurt after being hit by a car Wednesday night, RCMP say, and had to be airlifted to hospital in critical condition.
The incident took place on Manitoba Avenue in Selkirk around 9:30 p.m. Two people were walking in the middle of the road when one of them, a 17-year-old boy, was hit by an eastbound vehicle, police said, and ended up in the south ditch.
The driver, a 27-year-old RM of St. Andrews man, wasn’t hurt in the incident, nor was the second pedestrian.
Selkirk RCMP continue to investigate with the help of a forensic collision reconstructionist.
