At 8 a.m. on May 10, the driver of a Toyota Rav4 was heading south on 90 Street while an 85-year-old man on a motorbike was heading north, police said.

Police said it was reported the SUV then struck an 80-year-old woman standing on the corner of the intersection.

Both the man and woman were treated on scene and taken to hospital where they remained as of Friday morning.

The man is in stable condition and the woman’s injuries are described as serious.
