Police have released video from a private system showing the vehicle that fled the scene of an accident that sent a 60-year-old man to hospital from Carlaw and Riverdale Aves. Wednesday. They say the white commercial van was heading north on Carlaw and made a right hand turn at Riverdale. Remarkably, as the story is told, it somehow managed to get all the way across the roadway to the north sidewalk where the man was waiting to cross. Following the collision, police said the driver failed to remain at the scene. The vehicle involved was last seen travelling eastbound on Riverdale Avenue heading towards Pape Avenue. The victim was taken to hospital with serious injuries. The vehicle is described as a light-coloured GMC or Chevrolet cargo-style van, with front-end damage from the collision.
