A 30-year-old man of no fixed address was pronounced dead at the scene after a three-vehicle crash Tuesday on Highway 9.
Caledon OPP reports officers were called to the scene east of Heart Lake Road at about 4 p.m.
Their investigation indicated a Chevrolet Impala was travelling westbound when it apparently crossed the centre line and collided head-on with a flat-bed delivery truck. A Toyota Corolla was also involved.
The driver of the Impala, Derek Murray Fischer, was ejected from the car and was pronounced dead. The driver of the Toyota was transported by air ambulance to a trauma centre in Toronto. Police said the driver of the truck was just shaken up.
There were no passengers in any of the vehicles.
The road was closed until the early yesterday (Wednesday) morning while OPP’s Technical Collision Investigators assisted with the investigation.
The investigation is continuing.
