Almost a year since the shocking incident, a local person is now facing charges for a downtown crash.
Sea to Sky RCMP (Squamish) said in a release that on March 11, Kyle Luca, of Squamish, was charged with two counts of impaired driving causing bodily harm, dangerous driving causing bodily harm, failure to stop causing bodily harm and dangerous driving.
These charges have yet to be proven in court.
On April 22, 2024, officers responded to a report that a pedestrian, who was pushing a stroller with an infant while crossing the crosswalk at the intersection of Second and Pemberton Avenues, had been hit by a vehicle.
Police say the driver allegedly failed to remain at the scene and was located and arrested a couple of blocks away.
"We are committed to keeping our communities safe and are pleased that the culmination of this investigation has led to charges," said Sgt. Dallas Langley of the Sea to Sky RCMP, in the release.
