Coquitlam RCMP want to speak to anyone who may have witnessed a serious crash on the morning of Sunday, March 8.
At about 1:20 a.m. a Coquitlam man in his 20s was driving a black two-door Nissan 370Z northbound on Blue Mountain Street. He lost control for unknown reasons and hit two parked vehicles, a concrete retaining wall and an electrical post before coming to a stop at the intersection of Blue Mountain Street and Regan Avenue.
He suffered life-threatening injuries and was taken to a hospital in critical condition. The dog that was in the car at the time of the collision suffered non-serious injuries and is being cared for at a local animal shelter.
It's unknown if speed, alcohol or drugs were involved and police continue to investigate the collision with the assistance of the Integrated Collision Analysis and Reconstruction Service.
Investigators would like to speak to any witnesses who haven't yet spoken to an officer; they're asked to call Coquitlam RCMP at 604-945-1550 and quote file number 2015-7214 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or www.solvecrime.ca.
