A 21-year-old man who was hit by an SUV while riding an electric scooter in Pickering last week has died in hospital.
Ontario Provincial Police say officers from their Whitby detachment responded to the collision on the Hwy. 401 westbound onramp from southbound Liverpool Rd. around 4:40 p.m. on June 4.
“The collision involved a red SUV and a E-scooter that was crossing the onramp lane,” the OPP said in a statement released Wednesday.
The e-scooter rider — a Pickering man whose name was not released — was transported to a trauma centre in Toronto Centre with serious injuries and the SUV driver remained at the scene.
The OPP said the e-scooter rider “succumbed to his injuries” on Monday.
The Whitby OPP is continuing to investigate this collision and is requesting anyone who witnessed the collision, has dash camera footage, or has any information regarding the collision to contact the Whitby OPP at 905-668-3388.
