Mounties in Kelowna are still searching for a suspect after a 14-year-old boy was hit by a car while riding his skateboard around town.
The reported hit-and-run occurred on April 11 in the 800 block on Thompson Road.
It was around 10 p.m. when the boy was hit, police said.
He was riding north on a skateboard when he was hit by a dark Ford sedan on its way south.
The boy said the vehicle did not stop but a local resident heard what happened and provided help.
An ambulance took the boy to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries.
Police said the sedan could have “front damage” following the incident.
