ABBOTSFORD — A motorcyclist was critically injured in a collision involving an SUV at the intersection of McCallum Road and McDougall Avenue Friday (Jul. 5) evening in Abbotsford.

Abbotsford police responded to the scene at approximately 7:48 p.m. They found a 60-year-old male motorcyclist in critical condition with severe injuries. The motorcyclist received immediate medical attention and was transported to the hospital.

The driver and occupants of the SUV sustained minor injuries. They remained at the scene and cooperated with the police.
