Burlington OPP are investigating a tragic three-vehicle collision that took place on the eastbound QEW near Walkers Line over the Labour Day long weekend.
On Sunday, August 31st, emergency crews were called to the scene at around 6:45 p.m., where a 40-year-old man from Toronto was found critically injured. He was transported to a local hospital but was later pronounced dead.
Investigators believe the man may have suffered a medical emergency that led to the crash. The occupants of the other two vehicles were not hurt and remained on scene to assist police.
The QEW and nearby ramps were closed for roughly two hours as crews completed their investigation and cleared the roadway.
Police are asking anyone with dashcam footage or who may have witnessed the collision to contact the Burlington OPP Detachment at 905-681-2511 or 1-888-310-1122. Anonymous tips can also be provided through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or ontariocrimestoppers.com.
