Lacombe Police are looking for a suspect after a pair of hit and runs that left one person injured on Monday.

On July 15, members received a report of a hit and run collision with injuries at the intersection of Highway 12 and 63 Street in Lacombe.

Police attended and determined that a suspect vehicle described as a dark coloured Mercedes Benz SUV had struck another vehicle from behind, before fleeing east at a high rate of speed.

An occupant of the vehicle that was rear ended was assessed on scene by EMS and transported to Lacombe Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Police then received a second complaint that a vehicle matching the description of the Mercedes Benz, involved in the earlier collision, had been involved in a second collision in a green space in the area of Parkland Acres in Lacombe.
