Police said officers from the Cambridge OPP detachment were called to the crash on Highway 401 westbound near Highway 6 in the Township of Puslinch shortly before 3 a.m.

Officers found three vehicles that were involved in the collision and two drivers were transported to hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, police said. Two passengers in the third vehicle, a man and a woman, were later pronounced dead by the coroner.

They have since been identified as 65-year-old Ramnauth Seebachan and 59-year-old Pardmini Seebachan, both from the Cambridge area.

The westbound lanes of Highway 401 were closed for the investigation, but have since reopened.
