A 27-year-old woman is in hospital after a single vehicle collision early Sunday morning. The accident happened at the Winnipeg Street off-ramp of the Ring Road North.
Police say the vehicle hit a light standard and was reported to be sitting on the railroad tracks on fire. It is not yet known if the vehicle rolled.
The driver was pulled from the vehicle and taken to Regina General Hospital. She remains in hospital with serious injuries.
Westbound traffic on the Ring Road was being diverted while crews cleaned up. Westbound lanes between McDonald Street and Winnipeg Street were also closed as investigators examined the scene this morning. Traffic is now moving through the area as usual.
The woman's name has not been released at this time. No charges have been laid.
One man has been arrested and will likely face charges after an attempted robbery of a Regina cab driver.
The incident happened at 1st Avenue North and Albert Street at approximately 4:30 Sunday morning.
The 41-year-old male cab driver was trying to give the suspect some change when the man tried to grab the cash. He then punched the cab driver and threw a 7-Up can at his face.
The suspect ran away on foot, and was tracked by a police canine unit to a yard in the 400 block of Lorne Street. The man was arrested and police say charges will likely be laid.
Just after 2 p.m., an 11-year-old boy was hit by a vehicle while riding his bicycle.
Police say the 58-year-old woman was driving westbound on Sangster Boulevard when she struck the boy, who was crossing the street outside of the marked crosswalk. Police say he was 10 to 15 feet outside the crosswalk, and the crosswalk lights were not activated at the time.
The cyclist was hit head on, and fell onto the road. He was not wearing a helmet at the time, but suffered only minor injuries. The boy was taken to hospital as a precaution.
No charges have been laid and the investigation is ongoing.
