An 80-year-old man who was knocked down by a car while crossing Steveston Highway has died.
The man sustained serious head injuries while crossing the highway at Trimaran Gate, near Railway Avenue, around 5:30 p.m. on Nov. 18.
He was taken to Vancouver General Hospital before he finally succumbed to his injuries last Monday, Dec. 2. Richmond RCMP's Road Safety Unit is continuing to investigate the incident.
Meanwhile, Richmond Mounties continue to seek witnesses who may have present when a man was shot in front of a business at the 11200 block of Bridgeport Road on Dec. 4. The shooting victim remained in hospital as of Wednesday and is still being treated for injuries he sustained when he was shot.
"While the investigation is in the early stages, it is believed this was not a random act," said Cpl. Stephanie Ashton, Richmond RCMP's media relations officer.
Police are asking anyone who was in the area of Bridgeport Road around 6:30 p.m. that evening to contact Richmond RCMP if they saw something.
