Mounties in Richmond are seeking additional witnesses and video as they investigate a fatal crash that happened earlier this week.

The collision occurred shortly before 7 a.m. Wednesday near the intersection of Williams and Seacote roads, where a driver hit a pedestrian with their vehicle. The driver remained at the scene and has been co-operating with investigators, Richmond RCMP said in a statement Friday.

The pedestrian died at the scene, despite the efforts of first responders.
