One dead, another injured in fatal rollover crash in Etobicoke

By Lucas Casaletto

Police are searching for the driver of a vehicle which fled the scene of a fatal crash in Etobicoke on Friday.

Toronto Police were first called at 12 p.m. for reports of a crash near Burnhamthorpe Road and Shaver Avenue, just west of Islington.

Investigators say a Gold Pontiac Montana van and a black sedan were travelling westbound on Burnhamthorpe at a high rate of speed when the van collided with a Honda CRV that was going south on Shaver, causing that vehicle to flip over. The driver of the sedan fled the scene of the crash.

The driver of the CRV, a 59-year-old man, was pronounced dead at the scene.

The driver of the van was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Police released surveillance images of the black sedan and are asking anyone with dashcam footage or additional information to contact them.
