Provincial police say one person is dead after a crash involving a loose wheel on Queen Elizabeth Way in St. Catharines, Ont., on Tuesday.
Police say in a social media video that the collision happened in the Toronto-bound lanes of the highway, just east of Niagara Street.
They say a wheel came off a vehicle travelling in the opposite direction and struck another vehicle.
Police say the driver of one of the vehicles was pronounced dead at the scene.
They say a passenger in the same vehicle was taken to hospital for observation.
Police say the highway will be closed in both directions for about four hours and they are asking drivers to avoid the area.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Sept. 23, 2025.
Note to readers:This is a corrected story. An earlier version incorrectly said, based on information provided by police, that the wheel struck two vehicles.
