Witnesses at the scene told investigators two occupants of the overturned vehicle were seen fleeing the area.
Police contained the area and mounted a search for the suspects, but did not locate them.
The vehicle was not stolen.
“We cannot comment on the cause of the crash,” Percival said.
At least six police vehicles could be observed at the scene, with officers setting up a perimeter with two cars at Lougheed and Park.
