A 72-year-old male has passed away in hospital, following a pedestrian collision that occurred in downtown Edmonton over the weekend.

At approximately 8 p.m. on Saturday, Jan. 17, 2015, Downtown Division officers responded to a collision in the area of 105 Avenue and 101 Street. A male pedestrian allegedly attempted to cross 101 Street eastbound when he was struck by a Volkswagen SUV that had entered the intersection on a green light. The SUV was driven by a female motorist.

The pedestrian was treated and transported to hospital where he succumbed to his injuries.

The Edmonton Police Service Major Collision Investigation Unit has taken over the ongoing investigation. Charges have not been laid. Neither speed nor alcohol are believed to be factors in the collision.

This is the second pedestrian fatality of 2015.
