Late Sunday night, a hit-and-run collision on Toronto's west end resulted in four individuals being hospitalized, police announced. Authorities responded to a report of a two-vehicle accident just before 11:30 p.m. at the intersection of Dufferin Street and Rogers Road, north of St. Clair Avenue West. Upon arriving at the scene, officers discovered that the three occupants of one vehicle fled the scene immediately following the collision, prompting a thorough search of the surrounding neighborhood.

Paramedics arrived at the scene and confirmed that four individuals sustained minor injuries and were transported to the hospital. Subsequently, police apprehended the fleeing driver, a 21-year-old man, who now faces several charges, including dangerous operation, impaired operation, and fail to remain. The second vehicle's driver also sustained minor injuries.

The intersection was promptly shut down overnight during the police investigation, with Dufferin Street closed in both directions at Rogers Road. However, road closures have since been lifted. The incident remains under investigation, and police continue to gather information regarding the events leading up to the collision.
