A 69-year-old man is dead after he was struck by a vehicle in Burlington.
Police say it happened on Maple Crossing Boulevard, near Maple Avenue and Lakeshore Road, around 7 p.m.
When emergency crews arrived on scene they found a man laying at the end of the driveway without any vital signs.
Police say it appears that a 17-year-old male was reversing a 2004 Ford Explorer when it struck the man and an 18-year-old female, then crashed into a tree and two town homes.
The female was transported to hospital with non-life threatening injuries. No one in the homes was injured.
Neighbours say the victim was teaching his stepson how to drive when he was struck by the vehicle.
There has been no word on charges.
