Police say Traffic Collision Investigators arrived on scene just before 2:00 a.m. at Winnipeg’s Talbot Avenue and Panet Road to a 43-year-old man lying near the middle of the intersection.

They said there is a chance that the man, who is currently in critical condition, might have been the victim of a hit and run.
