On Tuesday, Jan. 7, 2025, at approximately 11 p.m., a 2005 Mazda A3 driven by a 34-year-old male was travelling northbound on 82 Street and entered the intersection of 123 Avenue on a green light. At the same time, a female pedestrian was crossing 82 Street westbound where crossing is prohibited. The Mazda struck the pedestrian, sending her into the path of a 2018 Honda CRV travelling in the next lane, which also struck the pedestrian. The Honda was driven by a 27-year-old female. Both drivers remained on scene.
