Burnaby RCMP is asking the public for dashcam video and eyewitness accounts as investigators look into a collision that killed a pedestrian earlier this week. The incident happened on Monday evening along a busy stretch of Kingsway near Edmonds Street, an area that connects Burnaby and southeast Metro Vancouver communities.

Police say officers were called just after 7 p.m. on December 1 after a pedestrian was struck by an eastbound vehicle. The driver remained at the scene and is cooperating with investigators. The Burnaby RCMP Criminal Collision Investigation Team has taken over the case, which typically handles serious and fatal motor-vehicle incidents.

Mounties say they are working to piece together what unfolded before the impact, including assessing traffic patterns and visibility conditions at the time. Cpl. Mike Kalanj said investigators want to hear from anyone who was in the area between 6 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on the night of the collision. Kingsway is a major commuter corridor linking Burnaby with New Westminster and Vancouver, and police believe additional footage or accounts could help clarify the circumstances.

Officers are urging anyone who witnessed the incident or has dashcam video from Kingsway and Edmonds Street during that time window to contact Burnaby RCMP at 604-646-9999 and reference file number 2025-41886.
