Tragedy struck an Aurora family on Wednesday afternoon when their four-year-old girl was killed in a multi-vehicle collision.
Several others were injured, including an 11-year-old girl from Richmond Hill and a 29-year-old woman from Aurora.
The York Regional Police is seeking witnesses with any information into the crash.
Police say they responded at 3.30 p.m. to the scene of a two vehicle collision at the intersection of Woodbine Avenue and Mount Albert Road. A Toyota Sienna with seven occupants collided with a Chevrolet Silverado pick-up truck pulling a small trailer.
“Of the occupants of the Toyota, a four-year-old girl from Aurora was killed at the scene, a one-year-old baby boy from Aurora and an 11-year-old girl from Richmond Hill were transported to hospital in critical condition. The driver, a 29-year-old woman from Aurora suffered minor injuries along with one other adult passenger. Two other adult passengers suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries.
