BMW M5 Crash Damages 7 Parked Vehicles at 58 Ave SW in Calgary’s Windsor Park

On August 8, 2025, a 2018 BMW M5 fleeing a traffic stop crashed along 58 Avenue S.W. in Calgary’s Windsor Park neighbourhood, damaging seven parked vehicles. Police say the driver, a 19-year-old man, is facing multiple charges, including impaired driving and failing to comply with a release order.
What Happened
Calgary Police say the crash occurred around 2:10 a.m. Friday. The BMW was travelling northbound on Macleod Trail S.W. at high speed when the driver attempted to turn westbound onto 58 Avenue S.W. while fleeing a traffic stop.
The vehicle struck the rear of a parked car, triggering a chain reaction that damaged seven parked vehicles along the street. The BMW was also damaged.
Police identified the driver as Kane Anignostis Burrows, 19, and confirmed he has been charged with:
- Two impaired driving offences
- Two counts of failing to comply with a release order
Burrows appeared in court on Monday and is scheduled to return on August 18 for both this case and a previous one.

Background: Previous Fatal Crash
Court records show Burrows was already facing charges from a December 2024 crash along Glenmore Trail, minutes from this most recent scene. In that incident:
- A high-end BMW struck a parked crane
- An 18-year-old passenger was killed
- Another passenger suffered serious injuries
In March 2025, Burrows was charged with impaired driving causing death and several other offences. His release conditions included no alcohol consumption and no driving.
Location Context
Windsor Park sits just west of Macleod Trail and north of Glenmore Trail, with a mix of residential streets and busy commuter routes. Overnight street parking, sharp turns, and high traffic volumes can make this area especially risky if a driver is speeding or loses control.
Your Rights After a Car Accident in Calgary
If you are injured in a collision, Alberta law provides access to accident benefits (Section B), which can cover medical treatment, rehabilitation, and income replacement. You may also have the right to file a lawsuit for pain and suffering, lost income, and other expenses against the at-fault party.
Strict timelines apply in Alberta, and some insurer deadlines are only days after a crash. Speak to a Calgary car accident lawyer before providing a statement or accepting a settlement.
