The Craik RCMP is asking for the public’s help in identifying a truck that fled following a serious collision earlier this month at the north entrance to Davidson.

The RCMP said a two-vehicle collision occurred July 6 at approximately 5:25 p.m. on Highway 11. In the collision a southbound Chevrolet Uplander van struck an eastbound truck that crossed into its path from a stop sign.

“The people in the Uplander were taken to the hospital with minor injuries and released,” said Craik RCMP Constable Ian Smith. “The truck is still unidentified.”

The truck has been described as tan in colour and possibly a GMC or Chevrolet work truck with a red fuel slip tank in the back. It received substantial damage in the collision as its rear bumper and tailgate were seen hanging from the back when it was last seen heading northbound on Hwy. 11 past the Davidson Golf Course.

Smith said the driver of the truck is at fault in the collision and also faces a criminal code violation for leaving the scene of an accident. He said the truck was pulling out into oncoming traffic at the time of the collision going from Davidson across to the other side.

“We don’t know at this point what the motive is for leaving (the scene),” he said. “If anybody has witnessed it or are possible witnesses or have any tips please let us know or Crime Stoppers.”
