Woman, 72, dead after 3-vehicle crash in Vaughan

A woman is dead following a multi-vehicle crash in Vaughan.

York Regional Police were called to Pine Valley Drive north of Major Mackenzie Drive West just before 7:30 p.m. on Thursday for reports of a collision involving three vehicles.

Police say the driver of a blue Mazda CX-3 travelling southbound stopped to help a dog cross the road when a grey Ford Escape stopped behind that vehicle. A white Mercedes then crashed into the rear of the Ford, causing a chain-reaction collision.

Police say a 72-year-old woman who was in the Ford was rushed to a local hospital without vital signs and was later pronounced dead.

The occupants of the Mazda and Mercedes were treated for minor injuries.

There was no word on if any charges have been laid but police are appealing for anyone who may have dashcam footage or additional information to contact them.
