The pedestrian was hit at the intersection of Frontenac and Ontario Streets around 8:30 p.m. He was taken to hospital in critical condition.

The driver, a man in his 50s, was not injured and will meet with investigators as they try to understand what happened, said SPVM spokesperson Jean-Pierre Brabant.
