The Nanaimo RCMP is looking for witnesses to a collision that involved a motorized wheelchair and a vehicle.
A woman, who was operating a motorized wheelchair, was struck on Bowen road in front of Tim Horton’s around 11 a.m. on Dec. 31, according to Const. Gary O’Brien.
“While attempting to cross over the two northbound lanes, she was struck by a green Kia Soul driven by an adult male,” he said in a press release.
The 63-year-old victim was taken to Nanaimo hospital with serious injuries and received medial treatment, police said.
