Red Deer RCMP are looking for suspects who were driving a stolen car that hit a cyclist in Riverside Meadows on Wednesday night.
Shortly before 10 p.m., officers located a stolen Toyota Corolla as it drove along Holmes Street. When police activated their emergency lights, the stolen car drove off at a high rate of speed.
Officers did not pursue the vehicle for public safety reasons, but tracked the vehicle at a distance as other officers prepared to intercept the suspects.
While the stolen vehicle sped away, it collided with a cyclist at the corner of 60th Street and 54th Avenue.
The cyclist, believed to have suffered minor injuries, was treated at the scene by Red Deer Emergency Services personnel.
The suspect vehicle did not stop and was found abandoned on 56th Avenue.
Police Dog Services were called in to search the area. A dog was able to track the suspects movements along 56th Avenue and into a field, but was unable to locate them.
RCMP believe there were two people in the stolen car.
Traffic in the area was diverted for a time around the scene of the collision.
RCMP continue to search for the suspects. Anyone with information that may assist police in this investigation is asked to call Red Deer RCMP at 403-343-5575. To remain anonymous, call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or report it online at www.tipsubmit.com.
