One person died in a two-vehicle crash on Highway 401 between London and Woodstock, Ont., early Friday.
Emergency services were called to the westbound lanes between Culloden and Putnam roads in Thames Centre shortly after 2 a.m. Friday.
One of the drivers involved died at the scene, while the other was taken to hospital as a precaution. Late Friday morning, police confirmed the deceased was a 24-year-old from London.
The OPP traffic incident management and enforcement team remained in the area with a section of the highway closed until roughly 8 a.m. Friday.
“Tough night for all involved. Thanks to all for your patience,” Const. Jeff Hare said in a post to X, formerly known as Twitter.
The investigation is ongoing.
