A terrifying crash has the Sea to Sky RCMP investigating and seeking the public's help.
Monday night at about 8:30 p.m., a driver struck a pedestrian and a baby in a stroller at the crosswalk at Pemberton and Second Avenue in downtown Squamish, according to the RCMP.
RCMP say the driver fled the scene, but was found approximately two blocks away.
"The baby stroller, with the baby inside, was lodged into the front of the vehicle and appeared to have been dragged from the collision," police said in a news release on Tuesday morning.
The person who was walking and the baby suffered non-life-threatening injuries and are receiving medical attention.
