Toronto police have made an arrest in an alleged street racing incident near Port Union two weeks ago.
Investigators say a green Lamborghini and a white Mercedes E-Class were “racing at high speed” along Highway 2A near Meadowvale Road around 9:30 a.m. on the morning of July 17 when the Mercedes lost control, struck a white Ford F-150 pickup, left the roadway, and struck a tree.
The 15-year-old female driver of the Mercedes and a 24-year-old male passenger were taken to the hospital in life-threatening condition. The driver of the pickup, a 44-year-old man, and an 11-month-old boy suffered minor injuries.
The driver of the green Lamborghini, which fled the scene, was eventually located and police have charged 42-year-old Akil Gordon Heywood with two counts of dangerous operation of a conveyance causing bodily harm, failing to stop at the scene of an accident and stunt driving.
