Peel Regional Police say a man in his 20s was found with a gunshot wound following a collision in Mississauga on Monday night.

Emergency crews were called to Queensbridge Drive and Rathburn Road West, just west of Mavis Road, at around 10:03 p.m.

Police said there were three occupants in one vehicle, a driver and two passengers.

Officers found a man with a serious but non-life-threatening gunshot wound, another male was taken into custody and a third male initially fled the scene but was later caught by police and is now in custody. The third male suffered a minor injury from the crash, police added.

In the other vehicle, the driver remained on scene and was not injured.
