Investigators from the Major Collision Bureau have charged a 22-year-old Mississauga man with multiple serious offenses following a fatal motor vehicle collision that claimed the life of his passenger.
The tragic incident occurred on Tuesday, April 1, 2025, at 1:47 p.m. at the intersection of Erin Mills Parkway and Vista Boulevard in Mississauga. According to Peel Regional Police, a blue Mazda 3 traveling northbound on Erin Mills Parkway collided with a silver Jeep Cherokee that was heading southbound and making a left turn onto Vista Boulevard.
