The province’s Special Investigations Unit (SIU) has invoked its mandate after Peel Regional Police said an allegedly stolen vehicle was involved in a crash with five other vehicles in Brampton.

Police were investigating a stolen vehicle when it crashed into other vehicles at the intersection of Torbram Road and North Park Drive shortly after 4 p.m. Tuesday.

Two male suspects who were in the stolen vehicle tried to flee on foot after the collision but were taken into custody.

One of the suspects and another victim were taken to a local hospital with undisclosed injuries.

The SIU is an arms-length agency that investigates police-involved incidents where there has been death, serious injury, or allegations of sexual assault.
