One suspect is on the loose and another is in police custody after a speeding truck smashed into several vehicles in southeast Calgary Thursday evening.
Police were called to multiple reports hit-and-run collisions along Memorial Drive East, shortly before 5 p.m.
Four vehicles were hit by the truck, which then drove down 28 Street SE, before losing control and crashing into a minivan parked in a driveway in the 3300 block of Radcliffe Drive SE.
According to witnesses, the truck was travelling at excessive speeds.
