Were you a passenger on bus that hit man?

Hamilton police want to talk to any passengers who were on an HSR bus that struck and critically injured a 74-year-old pedestrian last week.

The man was crossing John Street South near Young Street when he was struck by the city bus shortly after 9 a.m. on Friday.

The collision left the man with life-threatening injuries and he remains in critical but stable condition.

"The bus was heading north on John and the man was crossing west to east," said Hamilton police media officer Sergeant Terri-Lynn Collings.

The accident and investigation closed the road for more than six hours.
