UMVA has learned that a tragic collision on Mississauga’s Highway 410 sent shockwaves through the community after midnight Saturday.
The incident, involving a 48‑year‑old man from Brampton, unfolded in the southbound lanes near Derry Road when a vehicle collided with a pedestrian. The man was pronounced dead on the scene, and investigators found no signs of foul play.
All southbound lanes between Steeles Avenue and Derry Road were closed until 5 a.m. as police pieced together the chaotic moments that led to the fatality.
UMVA can exclusively reveal that witnesses and anyone holding dashcam footage are urgently urged to contact authorities to aid the ongoing investigation.
In a separate incident, a man in Scarborough was struck by an SUV in a parking lot late Friday night, leaving him with life‑threatening injuries.
The Nissan Rogue was driven by an unidentified male, while the pedestrian, a 52‑year‑old, was caught off guard as the vehicle barreled into the parking area.
Both cases highlight the fragile line between everyday life and sudden disaster on Toronto’s roads and streets.
Authorities remain on high alert, and the investigation into both collisions is continuing with a call for public cooperation.
Anyone with information or video that could illuminate these tragic events is urged to reach out to the relevant police services immediately.
