36-year-old man seriously injured following collision in Ancaster

A 36-year-old man is facing potentially life-altering injuries following a collision in rural Ancaster on Tuesday afternoon.

Hamilton police responded to a head-on collision reported in the area of Trinity Road South and Butter Road West just before 4:45 p.m.

That’s where officers say a white Hyundai Elantra sedan collided with a grey GMC Yukon Suburban.

The 36-year-old driver of the Hyundai who police say is from Toronto, was taken to hospital in life-threatening condition, though he is now in serious but stable condition with injuries considered to be life-altering

The driver of the GMC, a 34-year-old man from Ohsweken, was also taken to hospital with minor injuries.

Given the severity of injuries faced by the 36-year-old driver, the city’s collision reconstruction unit remained on scene leading an investigation.

Thus far, no charges have been laid and the cause of the crash has not been determined by police.

Investigators are asking for any witnesses or anyone with video footage of the area around the time of the collision to contact Det. Const. Wesley Wilson of the collision reconstruction unit at 905-546-4753 or wwilson@hamiltonpolice.ca.
