Three teenage boys are lucky to be alive after a shocking Valentine's Day incident in Abbotsford.
Dramatic home security video obtained by CTV News shows the moment a driver chased the trio down Carlsrue Avenue Wednesday afternoon, before hitting two of the boys.
Ultimately, they suffered minor injuries. Abbotsford police said they are aware of reports the incident began with the boys playing nicky nicky nine doors – knocking doors before running away.
“We soon learned that the incident had evolved or was predated by some sort of argument or disturbance – to later having a driver intentionally use a vehicle as a weapon, colliding with two youths,” said Const. Art Stele on Thursday.
People who live in the neighbhourhood are concerned.
They say whatever the kids did beforehand – if this was intentional – it’s not acceptable.
“It was said they were doing knocky knocky nine door, and I thought, 'Well, this man is mad and he’s going to try and chase them that way,' which looked really dangerous to me,” said a woman who lives a few doors down from the incident.
