Darpan News Desk The Canadian Press, 06 Oct, 2025 10:57 AM

RCMP in North Vancouver say a person suffered critical injuries in a road rage incident this weekend.

Mounties say they responded after multiple witnesses reported a dispute over merging between a grey Subaru and a white Jeep near Boulevard Crescent and East 21st Street Saturday afternoon.

It is alleged that during the interaction, the occupant of the Jeep got out of their vehicle and was hit by the grey Subaru.

The victim was taken to hospital in critical condition and police immediately took the driver of the Subaru into custody.

The suspect is facing multiple charges and has since been let go with police imposed conditions.

North Vancouver RCMP spokesman Cpl. Mansoor Sahak called it "a traumatic incident for the people who witnessed it.”

He added that police are assessing the condition of the victim, which may impact the nature of the suspect's charges as the investigation progresses.
