    Male voices are heard giggling in the video recorded inside the SUV, as the vehicle hits the cyclist and keeps driving.

    Sociopath.

      It’s canada (and the part of canada commonly referred to as “the texas of canada”)

      I would not be surprised if they get a slap on the wrist… “It was dark… They werent wearing a safety vest…” Etc…

      This article is infuriating…

      A man is in hospital after Edmonton police said he was intentionally mowed down by a vehicle driver…

      The collision assault happened on 3:20 a.m. on Monday, Aug. 4, and was captured on video by one of the occupants of the vehicle.

        The police are clearly treating it as intentional. Your knee-jerk vilifications and remonstrations are not helpful, especially here.

      A slap on the wrist coming in 3, 2, 1…

      You want to get away with killing or inguring someone, do it in a car.

    Police also believe a passenger inside the vehicle filmed the collision.

    Police later obtained that video from social media.

    Can they not find out who uploaded it?

    I doubt these psychopaths are sophisticated enough to cover their tracks.

    This is one of those scenarios where I wish victims could take the SUV and run over the people who did it.
