The child was playing outside with her 17-year-old sister at the time of the crash. The toddler’s sister described the vehicle involved as being green.
Police added that they believe the vehicle is a dark-coloured or possibly green SUV.
Police said the driver may not have realized they hit the child, and are asking for the driver, or anyone who may have seen a green vehicle in the area at the time of the crash, to call them at 403-266-1234.
