Burnaby RCMP’s Traffic Services Unit is continuing to investigate a serious crash on Christmas Day that sent a 30-year-old motorcyclist to hospital with serious injuries.
The crash happened just after 2 p.m., as Burnaby RCMP responded to a report of a motor vehicle collision involving a navy Volkswagen Golf and a motorcycle at Canada Way and Goodlad Street.
A suspect was arrested on scene on suspicion of being impaired while driving. The motorcyclist was transported from the scene and remains in hospital with serious injuries.
Police have reviewed CCTV footage from a nearby home which showed that a number of vehicles slowed and passed by prior to and just after the collision occurred.
“We would ask the occupants of these vehicles to contact us, even if they did not witness the actual collision taking place,” said Burnaby RCMP, in a news release. “Additionally, if any of these vehicles have dash cam video we would ask that the drivers contact Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999.”
If witnesses would rather stay anonymous, then contact CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
