Burlington OPP are asking for the public’s help after a lost load traffic incident in Hamilton sent a person to hospital with life-threatening injuries.
In a social media post, Sgt. Kerry Schmidt said “a set of dresser and drawers” fell out of a black pickup truck on Highway 403 near Aberdeen Avenue on Wednesday night around 8 p.m. and resulted in a “multi-vehicle chain-reaction collision.”
“We know the driver of the truck stopped his vehicle on the shoulder,” Schmidt said. “The male got out of that vehicle.”
Schmidt added that the driver was wearing a black jacket.
