42-year-old tow truck driver was hit while helping stranded motorist on Wednesday
The driver wanted in connection with a fatal hit and run on Highway 401 earlier this week has been identified, police say.
The collision happened just after 7 a.m. on Wednesday near Oxford Road 3.
A 42-year-old tow truck driver was helping a stranded motorist when they were struck and killed.
Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) released a photo of the suspect vehicle, which was a blue commercial tractor and trailer with a black tarp on top. Police say they have located the vehicle.
"I just want to say thank you, a sincere thank you to every one that provided information," OPP Sgt. Ed Sanchuk said in a video posted to X, formerly Twitter.
Sanchuk said further updates would be provided when more details are available.
"I want to take this time to offer my sincere condolences to all family members and friends who are affected by this tragedy. Everybody please, please make sure you take care. Stay safe, get home safe to your families."

Notice how they don't show the front of the truck... I wonder why?
It is the same BS England is pulling. The police are banned from ID’ing the rapists and killers or their ethnicity.
You down with OPP?
Yeah, you know me!
As part of any commercial truck check when crossing the border into the US, all drivers should be checked for English proficiency.
No (visible) Commercial ID number or government serial nbr code on the side of the truck cab.
(Yes, it may be a Canadian registered, Canadian licensed truck and cab with a Canadian CDL requirement - But they are MORE regulated and tagged and tied than the US trucks are! )
Can’t see an telltale tassels, but then again... It is a fuzzy pic.
