A 22-year-old man from Mississauga faces seven charges, including impaired driving in connection with a fatal car crash that happened earlier this year.
According to Peel Regional Police (PRP), emergency crews were called to the scene of a two-vehicle collision on April 1, 2025 at approximately 1:45 p.m. near Erin Mills Parkway and Vista Boulevard.
Police say two people in a blue Mazda 3 were travelling northbound on Erin Mills when they collided with a silver Jeep Cherokee that was on the other side of the street and making a left turn.
“Following the collision, the Mazda lost control and collided with a pole,” PRP wrote in a press release issued on Monday. “The speed of the Mazda is considered a primary factor in this collision.”
Paramedics transported both the driver of the Mazda and a 20-year-old passenger to a hospital with serious injuries. Police say the passenger was later pronounced dead.
The driver of the Jeep was not seriously injured.
