Three die in separate but related crashes on the 401
By Unnati GANDHI,
Page A7
Three people are dead, including a mother and daughter, after
a horrific chain of events unfolded on a small strip of Canada's
busiest highway yesterday.
The accidents involved four vehicles - including three trucks
- in two separate but related crashes.
It all began about 4 a.m. Fanshawe College student Ashley
GARROD,
22, was driving eastbound on the 401 near London, Ontario, with
her mother, Elizabeth
THOM, when a tractor-trailer struck them
from behind, police said. Their small car was sent skidding across
the highway before coming to a stop in the ditch on the south
side.
Ontario
Provincial
Police Sergeant Dave
REKTOR said police received
a 911 call about headlights seen shining out of the ditch.
When emergency crews arrived, they found Ms.
GARROD and her 52-year-old
mother dead inside the car. The truck that had hit them was nowhere
to be found, Sgt.
REKTOR said.
After issuing a public alert, police found a truck with extensive
damage to its front at a Flying J truck stop a few kilometres
away.
Its 61-year-old driver, Stefan
FOGIEL, of Acton, has been charged
with two counts of failing to remain at the scene of an accident
causing death, resisting arrest, failing to maintain log books,
and failing to have a pre-trip inspection.
The highway was closed for several hours as investigators reconstructed
the collision.
Then, just before 11 a.m., a transport truck slowing down as
it approached the roadblock at the collision site was struck
from behind by another truck. The driver of the second truck,
Timothy McDERMOTT, 50, died on impact. The driver of the first
truck, Harpreet
PANNU, suffered non-life-threatening injuries.
No charges are expected to be laid.
"It would appear the driver was not paying attention," Sgt.
REKTOR
said. "The at-fault driver was the victim as well."
The officer said the collisions were that much more tragic because
both could have been prevented with more careful driving.
