Police have a suspect in custody after an OPP chase and crash, which prompted the closure of the QEW in Mississauga on Saturday.
Sometime before 9:30 a.m., officers attempted to pull over a driver, who then took off. Police gave chase and ended up colliding with the suspect’s car in the Toronto-bound lanes of the QEW near Hurontario Street.
Another car was also involved in the crash.
Investigators say the suspect ran away, but was caught by Peel police at a nearby mall.
The Ontario Ministry of Transportation has also been called in to investigate.
No charges have been laid.
The Toronto-bound lanes of the QEW were closed from Hurontario to Dixie Road for several hours while police investigated.
