Motorcyclist, 29, dies in crash with TTC bus, vehicle in Etobicoke

A 29-year-old motorcyclist has died after being involved in a collision with a vehicle and a bus in Etobicoke.

Toronto police were called to Kipling and Steeles avenues just after 7 p.m. for reports of collision.

Insp. Baheer Sarvanandan said the rider was traveling northbound on Kipling when the rider “was separated from the motorcycle” and ended up underneath a TTC bus that was traveling northbound in the curb lane.

The motorcycle continued into the intersection at Steeles and struck a vehicle traveling eastbound.

The rider was transported to hospital via an emergency run where he died of his injuries.

Sarvanandan said speed was a factor in the crash, according to several witnesses. “The speed carried the motorcycle itself well over a couple hundred metres.”

There were people on board the bus at the time of the crash, according to police.
