An early morning single-vehicle crash has claimed the lives of two men in North York.
Toronto police say a vehicle struck a traffic light pole at Finch Avenue West and Romfield Lane, just west of Keele Street, just after 4:30 a.m. Saturday. The force of the crash caused the engine block to be ejected from the vehicle.
Life-saving measures were performed at the scene but investigators say a 39-year-old driver and a 42-year-old passenger were pronounced dead at the scene.
While the cause of the crash is under investigation, police say speed and possible impairment are being considered.
The crash has forced a partial closure of Line 6 Finch West LRT from Finch West and Tobermory stations until service resumed around noon.
