A pedestrian was killed after being driven over twice Monday morning in an incident in northeast Calgary.
Police were called around 5:40 a.m. to a parking lot in the 100 block of Martindale Blvd NE, where a driver had attempted to turn into the lot.
According to police, a pedestrian was lying on the sidewalk in front of the parking lot entrance, and the driver drove over him. When the driver realized the gate to the parking lot was closed, he reversed the vehicle, driving over the victim for a second time.
He then accessed the parking lot from a different entrance.
Bystanders alerted the driver, who was a man in his 50s, to the pedestrian.
Police said the victim was taken to hospital, where he later died of his injuries.
Anyone who witnessed the incident or has dashcam footage is asked to contact the Calgary police at 403-266-1234.
