Toronto police have located a driver and pedestrian involved in a reported collision early Tuesday morning.
Officers were called to Victoria Park Avenue and Ellesmere Road just before 2 a.m. for reports of a collision between a pedestrian and a vehicle.
It was reported that the pedestrian was crossing from east to west at the intersection when a dark-coloured Honda Civic made a left turn and struck the person.
Immediately after the collision, the driver assisted the pedestrian into their vehicle and fled the scene at “a high rate of speed.”
The vehicle was last seen traveling southbound on Victoria Park Avenue.
Police were looking to speak to the driver and pedestrian to ensure the pedestrian is safe.
They were able to make contact with the driver and the pedestrian and the pedestrian suffered minor injuries as a result of the collision. The investigation is still ongoing.
