TERRACE, B.C. - The Mounties are searching for a pickup-type truck that was involved in a deadly hit-and-run accident over the weekend near Terrace, B.C.
Police say the body of a man in his 30s was discovered in the ditch on the north side of Highway 16 about four kilometres outside the city.
The man's injuries were consistent with having been struck by a vehicle and police say there was supporting evidence at the scene.
The man has been identified as a Terrace resident and police say it's believed he was walking on the shoulder facing traffic when the crash occurred between 3 a.m. and 7 a.m. on Sunday.
Police say they're looking for a larger pickup that would have significant damage to the passenger side and may be missing a passenger-side mirror.
The RCMP say they're also urging the driver to come forward to police.
