Montreal police are seeking the driver of a red sports model motorcycle who struck a pedestrian in downtown Montreal last August after fleeing a police check.

The incident occurred at about 1 a.m. on Aug. 30 after patrol officers activated their squad car lights to pull over a motorcyclist whose vehicle had a cancelled licence plate. The driver did stop on Mackay St., but then sped off. Over the course of his flight he ran four red lights before striking a pedestrian crossing on a green light at the corner of René-Lévesque Blvd. and Fort St.
