Driver alleged to have hit 4 in B.C. residential school march turns himself in to RCMP

A 77-year-old man is not in custody but is co-operating with investigators and his truck has been seized for examination

RCMP say the driver of a truck who allegedly hit four people walking in a residential school march in Mission, B.C., on Saturday has come forward to police.

Police say the March for Recognition for Residential Schools temporarily blocked the only eastbound travel lane of the Lougheed Highway as a large group made their way from Heritage Park to the site of the former St. Mary’s residential school. The release says investigators still need more details and are specifically looking for the driver of a single-unit dump truck or semi truck that was behind the pickup truck in question.
