One man is dead and two other people were sent to hospital after a head-on crash in Ancaster late Monday night, according to Hamilton paramedics.
Paramedics say they were called out around 11:30 p.m. for a two-car crash on Highway 403 eastbound at Highway 52.
A man in his 50s died at the scene, while a 27-year-old man was transported to hospital with serious injuries.
A 26-year-old woman was also sent to hospital with serious but non-life-threatening injuries, paramedics say.
Ontario Provincial Police are investigating the crash and believe the sedan carrying the man and the woman crossed through a ditch on the 403 and struck the eastbound car driven by the 50-year-old man from Mississauga who died.
