A 62-year-old woman died after being hit by a snow removal vehicle in a parking lot at the Laval gas station on Wednesday morning.
The Laval police stated that the woman was an employee of the Shell station located at the corner of Remembrance and Laval boulevards.
She was walking in the parking lot when she was hit by the snow plow around 6:40 am, according to Laval police spokeswoman Const. Evelyne Boudreau
The driver did not see the woman after leaving the station. He recoiled when she was touched, said Boudreau.
He was treated for shock on the scene and questioned by the police.
Boudreau said the driver's story was what the agents viewed on the surveillance footage. It was not under the influence of alcohol and the case is not treated as a criminal.
The Occupational Health and Safety Commission of Quebec (CNESST) is also investigating the incident, Boudreau said.
