A male pedestrian in his 20s is in hospital in serious but stable condition after a collision with a vehicle early Saturday morning.
The incident occurred at about 6:40 a.m. on Merivale Road near Central Park. Paramedics said they treated the man for extensive head and body injuries with advanced life support measures.
Ottawa police later said his injuries, though serious, were not life threatening.
One northbound lane of Merivale Road was briefly closed early Saturday morning.
Police are continuing to investigate but did not immediately see any reason for a criminal investigation.
