EDMONTON – Police are searching for a driver after a man was struck and knocked out of his wheelchair in Edmonton.

Police say the driver of a red SUV was trying to turn left from 127 Avenue onto 123 Street on Oct. 25 when the vehicle hit two men crossing the street.

A 31-year-old man was thrown from his wheelchair in what police call a hit and run.
