Teen charged in crash that damaged multiple vehicles in southwest Calgary
Police say several parked vehicles were struck after a driver lost control on Macleod Trail near 58 Avenue S.W. on Aug. 8, 2025. Charges have been filed against a 19-yearold man police believe is responsible for a crash that damaged seven vehicles parked on a street in southwest Calgary Friday. At around 2:10 a.m., police say a 2018 BMW M5, driven by the man, was reportedly driving north on Macleod Trail S.W. at high speed. As the vehicle approached 58 Ave. S.W., the vehicle tried to turn west onto 58 Ave S.W. while fleeing a traffic stop. The BMW hit the back end of a parked vehicle, causing a chain reaction that damaged six other vehicles parked along 58 Ave. S.W. As a result, the 19-year-old was charged with two counts of impaired driving-related offences and two counts of failing to comply with a release order. He's scheduled to appear in court on Monday. Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 403-266-1234. Those wishing to remain anonymous can contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477, online or by downloading the P3 Tips app.
