The SUV driver, the lone occupant, had to be extricated by members of the Aylmer fire department and they, as well as EMS, “performed life-saving measures on the scene to no avail,” police say.
The SUV driver was pronounced dead at the scene and identified as a 56-year-old St. Thomas man but police have not yet released his name in order to allow enough time to notify loved ones.
