65-year-old woman struck and killed on Hanlon Expressway in Guelph
A 65-year-old Guelph woman was killed Wednesday after she was hit by a pickup truck on the Hanlon Expressway.
OPP Const. Joshua Cunningham said it happened around 6 a.m. at the College Avenue intersection.
The woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
Police said the driver of the pickup was still there when officers arrived at the expressway.
No charges have been laid that this point.
“To be quite frank, it’s way too early in the investigation to make that kind of statement,” said Cunningham.
Police shut down the expressway, including the ramps on and off the Hanlon, for the remainder of the morning.
They said it will take some time to determine what happened Wednesday morning.
“Investigators including our reconstructionists will look at all the evidence, witness accounts, along with the coroner and pathologist reports to determine exactly what had occurred,” Cunningham added.
OPP are asking anyone with information or dash cam video of the collision to contact them.
SECOND PEDESTRIAN CRASH
Wednesday’s crash was the second one involving a pedestrian in the last two months.
On Nov. 2, a 58-year-old Guelph man was killed after he was struck by a pickup truck at Woodlawn Road and the Hanlon Expressway around 11:30 p.m.
He was also pronounced dead at the scene of the collision.
