A 56-year-old man from Orangeville is dead, and a 36-year-old man, also from Orangeville, is facing charges after a two-vehicle crash Saturday on Highway 10.
Caledon OPP reports the incident took place at about 2 p.m. between Beechgrove and Highpoint Sideroads.
The police investigation has revealed that a red Kia, driven by the 56-year-old man, was northbound on Highway 10, when a grey southbound Dodge apparently crossed into the northbound lane, causing a head-on collision. The OPP’s Technical Collision Investigators attended the scene to assist with the investigation.
The one man was pronounced dead at the scene, while the other was taken to hospital with minor injuries. That man has since been charged with impaired operation of a motor vehicle causing death, driving with more than the legal limit of alcohol in his system causing death and dangerous operation of a motor vehicle causing death.
Police are not releasing the name of the victim at this time.
Anyone with information regarding this collision is asked to contact the Caledon OPP at (905) 584-2241 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
