New details have emerged about two separate, but related, collisions that injured five people early Sunday morning on Highway 400 in Bradford.
In a video posted to X on Monday afternoon, OPP Sgt. Kerry Schmidt said that the first crash happened shortly before 3 a.m. when a 20-year-old man driving southbound near Canal Road left the roadway, entered the ditch, and rolled his vehicle “several” times.Alcohol is believed to be a “contributing factor” in this crash, Schmidt said.
Police closed Highway 400 southbound at Fifth Line for several hours while they investigated this single-vehicle collision. About four hours later, at around 7 a.m., a driver plowed through the closure and struck two road maintenance workers who were outside their “blocker” trucks.The other worker, who has not been identified, has serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
A 23-year-old man who drove the vehicle that broke through the closure along with a 27-year-old woman who was the passenger both sustained minor injuries in the crash.He reminded all drivers that they must maintain control of their vehicle and follow directions when they see flashing lights ahead of an emergency road closure.Highway 400 southbound was closed from highways 88 to 8 for several hours on Sunday as police investigated.
