A male driver is dead after crashing into a building in North York Saturday morning.
Toronto Police Const. Allyson Douglas-Cook confirmed to Newstalk 1010 that a call came in just after 6:30 am about the crash in the Bayview and Finch Avenues area. A minivan had crashed into a wall at Bayview arena.
"Our units responded with the other responders and they did locate a man in the vehicle and unfortunately he succumbed to his injuries and pronounced dead at the scene."
According to Douglas-Cook factors such as speed and a possible medical episode were being investigated, but the former rather than the latter may be more likely.
"Circumstances have not been confirmed or determined at this point, they're looking at a few possibilities. It is a possiblity that speed may have been a factor. We don't believe this(medical episode) to be the case.
Traffic reconstruction teams remained on the scene, but police add no roads in the area whill be affected by the investigation.
