Investigators say the southbound SUV struck the man as he was crossing Mayor Magrath Drive.

He sustained serious head injuries and was taken to Chinook Regional Hospital with life-threatening injuries, before being airlifted to Calgary by STARS Air Ambulance.

Police say the pedestrian was crossing the street against a “do not walk” signal while the SUV was proceeding through a green light, and there is evidence to suggest the pedestrian had been drinking.
