It also side-swiped a bus transporting kids to an after school facility and another vehicle on the street, which caused property damage.

Police are hoping to locate the pickup truck, which is described as an older Chevrolet single cab, box style vehicle that’s brown and grey in colour.

It’s believed to have sustained damage to its drivers side as a result of these collisions.

“We’re fortunate that no one was injured in these collisions but the outcome could have been much worse,” said Cpl. Meghan Foster.  

“We need to locate this pickup truck and follow up with the driver. We’re looking for a pickup truck matching this description specifically with damage to its driver side.”
