At approximately 2 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 20, 2022, a 2006 Dodge Charger was travelling north on Gateway Boulevard just before Ellerslie Road when it entered the green space on the west side, between the northbound and southbound lanes. The vehicle then veered across all six lanes of traffic, entered the green space on the east side, and collided with the guard rail, causing the vehicle to flip onto the Ellerslie Road off ramp, where it landed on its roof.
EMS treated and transported the 54-year-old male driver to the hospital with serious injuries. A 24-year-old female passenger was taken to the hospital as a precaution. A male passenger in his 60s who was in the rear seat was pronounced dead on scene.
Impairment and speed are considered factors in the collision. MCIS is leading the investigation.
