One person is dead, and two others were injured following a single-vehicle crash on Highway 401 at Meadowvale.
Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) said officers were called to the westbound collectors portion of the highway at Meadowvale Road in Scarborough just after 10 a.m. for reports of a crash.
A white SUV collided with the right-side steel guardrail and rolled over into the right-side ditch.
The driver, a 40-year-old from Pickering, was pronounced dead at the scene. Two passengers, a 78-year-old and a 2-year-old, were taken to hospital for treatment of minor injuries.
Police originally said the two passengers suffered serious injuries, but have since updated their conditions.
OPP said the westbound collector lanes have reopened, but two right lanes are still closed through Meadowvale for guardrail repairs.
