The Edmonton Police Service (EPS) released a pair of photos Friday afternoon of a vehicle they suspect was involved in a hit-and-run crash last month that left a 19-year-old woman fighting for her life.
Police said they hope someone will recognize the vehicle and call them with more information on the incident.
At around 12:30 a.m. on Saturday, May 13, 2017, officers were called to a hit-and-run collision at Kingsway and Tower Road. Police said they found a 19-year-old woman who had been hit by a vehicle that was no longer at the scene.
The vehicle police are looking for is described as a 2002-2005, white, four-door Chevrolet Trailblazer with tinted front windows, a roof rack and black trim along the bottom of both doors.
Police said she was rushed to hospital in life-threatening condition and the family of the victim – Jordan Lees – later told Global News the crash left her in a coma with multiple contusions on her brain, torn ligaments in her knee and fractures in her skull, leg and vertebrae.
Watch below: On May 25, 2017, Kendra Slugoski filed this report about a teen who was hit by a vehicle in a crosswalk who was left fighting for her life.
She is now out of the coma, but is intubated and unable to speak. Police said Friday that Lees was listed in stable condition.
The family started a GoFundMe page to help cover medical bills and ongoing care Lees will need once she is released from the hospital..
