The driver, a 17-year-old boy, remained at the scene. The victim suffered life-threatening injuries. She was transported to Chinook Regional Hospital before being taken to the Foothills Medical Centre in Calgary where she remains in critical condition. Initially, police were unsure of the woman’s identity as she didn’t have any identification on her -- and had asked the public to reach out if they knew who she was.
