A woman has died following a collision involving a motorcycle and another vehicle in Scarborough early Monday, Toronto police say.
Officers were called to Birchmount Road and McNicoll Avenue around 7:37 a.m. for reports of a crash.
When they arrived, they found a female motorcyclist with life‑threatening injuries. She was rushed to the hospital on an emergency run, where she later died.
Police say another vehicle, described as a Dodge Caravan, was involved in the collision and that the driver, a 79-year-old woman, remained at the scene and is cooperating with investigators. No details have been released about the circumstances leading up to the crash.
The motorcyclist has been identified as a 29-year-old woman from Markham.
Birchmount Road was closed from McNicoll Avenue to north of Ivy Bush Boulevard for much of the morning but reopened to motorists on Monday afternoon.
The investigation is ongoing, and anyone who witnessed the crash or has dashcam footage is asked to contact Toronto police.
