A Niagara Falls man is facing charges in connection with a late summer fatal Niagara-on-the-Lake crash.
Investigators say the offences are tied to the death of a 19-year-old woman who was a passenger in a Subaru Impreza that collided with an Audi R8 luxury sports car at the intersection of Concession 7 Road and Line 6 Road on Aug. 28.
“The (19-year-old) driver of the Subaru attempted to make an eastbound turn onto Line 6 Road when both vehicles collided,” investigators said in a release.
“The driver of the Subaru was taken to an out-of-region hospital with serious injuries. The 19-year-old passenger was pronounced deceased at the scene.”
Two people in the Audi, ages 39 and 36, were taken to a hospital with minor injuries.
Niagara Regional Police have charged a 39-year-old driver with criminal negligence causing death as well as negligence causing bodily harm.
