One person has died after a crash involving a stolen vehicle in London, according to police.
Around 2:20 a.m. on Wednesday, officers saw a stolen vehicle believed to be stolen in the area of King Edward Avenue and Russell Avenue.
The vehicle fled from police and was later found involved in a crash in the area of Adelaide Street South and Thompson Road.
Police say an occupant in the “uninvolved citizen vehicle” was pronounced deceased on the scene. Two men and a woman from the suspect vehicle tried to run away but the female was caught and taken to hospital for treatment.
Alexis lives directly across from the crash scene and told CTV News she woke up to banging at her door shortly before 3 a.m. but didn’t get up and answer it — on reflection she expects it was the police.
When she did get up a few hours later she discover the scene outside her door she described as “carnage.”
“There is three cars and a trailer is on its side. One of the cars is on top of the other. A hydro pole is literally hanging by a thread. I just can’t believe I did not hear it,” said Alexis.
