Police are seeking the public’s assistance in identifying a vehicle and driver involved in a hit-and-run in Saanich.
Glanford Avenue was briefly closed Monday morning after a six-year-old child was struck by a vehicle around 7:30 a.m. while crossing a marked crosswalk between Kenneth and Tait streets.
