A 47-year-old Calgary man faces five counts of attempted murder after being accused of deliberately striking multiple pedestrians with his vehicle in a Lethbridge, Alta., parking lot last week.
Officers were called out on Friday around 6:30 p.m. to the parking lot of VisitLethbridge.com Arena (formerly Enmax Centre), located in the 2500 block of Scenic Drive South.
They discovered a 77-year-old woman, a 77-year-old man and a 46-year-old man who were seriously injured after being struck by a vehicle in the arena’s parking lot.
The victims were transported to hospital with serious injuries, but were listed in stable condition.
The driver fled the scene before officers arrived, but a short time later, police said he and his vehicle were spotted at a convenience store along Bluefox Bouleva
