Two pedestrians were hit by vehicles in separate incidents just hours apart in Hamilton on Monday night, according to the Hamilton Police Service.
The first of the occurences happened in Stoney Creek on Highway 8 near Envoy Bouelvard when a 38-year-old man was hit around 8:30 p.m. by a vehicle travelling east.
“He was transported to hospital, where he underwent surgery,” Cst. Indy Bharaj said in an email to Global News.
“Injuries sustained were serious but non-life-threatening.”
Less than two hours later, HPS were called out to an alleged hit and run at MacNab Street South and Hunter Street.
“A parked vehicle reversed and struck a 59-year-old female. The vehicle then fled the area,” said Bharaj.

Both matters are active investigations.
