A woman is dead after she was struck by an SUV while crossing the street in northeast Calgary Friday.
At 1:25 a.m., police were called to 34 Street near 37 Avenue N.E.
A woman was found dead at the scene and police blocked off the area.
"We are in the initial stages of our investigation," said Sgt. Colin Foster of the Calgary Police Service's collision reconstruction unit.
There was no information about the victim as of early Friday morning, but Foster said her injuries were "very significant."
He said the collision occurred outside an emergency communications centre, so a number of CPS colleagues witnessed the crash.
The vehicle that did not remain at the scene was described as a dark-coloured, older style SUV.
