LETHBRIDGE, AB – The Lethbridge Police Service (LPS) is asking for the public’s help to identify the driver of a vehicle who deliberately damaged the Pride Crosswalk.

On August 25, 2023 at approximately 12:49 a.m, an LPS officer patrolling downtown said they witnessed a truck perform a burn out over the Pride Crosswalk near Galt Gardens, causing damage to the paint.

Police said when the officer attempted to conduct a traffic stop, the truck fled at high speeds and was last seen heading westbound on Highway 3 out of the city.

Police canvassed downtown businesses in search of video, but could not get sufficient images to release to the public.

The vehicle is described as a 2012-2014 grey Ford F-150 with black pin striping across the body and a loud aftermarket exhaust.
