Victoria BC – This morning, shortly after 1:00 a.m., an officer responding to an unrelated call was almost hit by a vehicle travelling through a stop sign at Quadra and Courtney Streets.

Shortly after that incident, the same vehicle collided with another vehicle at Quadra Street and Hillside Avenue and then hit a building.  There was significant damage to both vehicles and the building.

The sole driver was taken hospital and due to the nature of his injuries, the IIO has been notified and is investigating to determine if there is a connection between the driver’s injuries and the actions of police.  Any further updates will be provided by their office.
