Police investigators in Prince George, B.C., have reported an unborn baby has been killed after an apparent hit-and-run involving a pedestrian.
On Friday shortly before 7 p.m., Prince George RCMP officers responded to a report that a pedestrian was struck by a vehicle in the area of Highway 97 and Noranda Road.
When officers arrived, they found a 37-year-old woman who was being attended to by passing drivers.
The woman was then transported to a nearby hospital in serious condition.
“It is with sadness we report the woman’s unborn child did not survive the incident and the mother is currently in stable condition,” said Cpl. Jennifer Cooper.
