A 75-year-old man has died after a collision on Elm Street in Greater Sudbury on Tuesday evening, police confirmed.
Officers were called to the roadway at approximately 6:30 p.m., between the Big Nickel Mine Road on-ramp and the Lasalle Extension off-ramp. The man sustained life-threatening injuries and was transported to hospital by Greater Sudbury Paramedic Services, where he later died.
Preliminary findings suggest the man’s vehicle crossed the centre line before colliding with another vehicle, according to police. The driver of the second vehicle was not injured.
The affected stretch of Elm Street remained closed during the investigation and reopened shortly before 3 a.m. Wednesday.
Police say the investigation into the fatal collision is continuing.
