A tragic incident unfolded on Monday along Westminster Highway in Richmond, where a 34-year-old man lost his life while cycling. Concerns arose when the victim failed to show up for work, prompting his colleagues to contact the Richmond RCMP. Knowing that the man typically biked to work, officers initiated a search, leading them to discover the man’s body near Fraserwood Place. The Serious Crimes Unit (SCU) of the Richmond RCMP has taken charge of the investigation, suspecting a hit-and-run involving a vehicle. The area where the man was found was temporarily closed for investigation. Authorities urge anyone with information to reach out to the police. This incident serves as a stark reminder for drivers to exercise caution, especially with the challenging weather conditions during this time of year. Meanwhile, the Vancouver Police Department (VPD) has also been grappling with fatal hit-and-run cases, seeking public assistance in identifying drivers involved in recent incidents.
