VICTORIA --
Nanaimo RCMP are asking for witnesses or people with dashcam footage to come forward after a crash claimed the life of an elderly woman in May.
The crash occurred just before 9 p.m. May 20 at the intersection of the Trans-Canada Highway and Cranberry Avenue.
Witnesses told police that a car driven by a 74-year-old woman was turning left onto the highway from Cranberry Avenue when a white pickup truck drove through a red light, striking the woman's car.
Witnesses said it appeared that the truck was travelling at a high speed and did not show signs of stopping for the traffic light.
