Three people were arrested in connection with a serious car crash that happened in Etobicoke early Saturday morning.
The province’s police watchdog, the Special Investigations Unit (SIU), says an Acura carrying two teens and an 18-year-old male fled from police during a traffic stop just after midnight.
The Acura was later involved in a collision with a Ford Escape near Carlingview Drive and Disco Road, west of Highway 27, that seriously injured three people. Their condition is non-life-threatening.
The SIU say the occupants of the Acura abandoned the vehicle and fled the scene on foot. They were arrested a short time later and were not seriously injured.
Toronto police say the two youths and the 18-year-old have each been charged with five firearms-related offences and possession of property obtained by crime exceeding $5,000.
The SIU is an independent government agency that investigates the conduct of police officials that may have resulted in death, serious injury, sexual assault and/or the discharge of a firearm at a person.
