Ontario’s police watchdog is investigating the circumstances of a 19-year-old woman’s death in Essex County.
The Special Investigations Unit says just before 4:30 a.m. Sunday, an Ontario Provincial Police officer from the Essex County detachment was driving on County Road 20 near Iler Road when there was a collision involving a pedestrian.
The SIU says the woman was taken to hospital and pronounced dead shortly after.
The SIU says two investigators, two forensic investigators and a collision reconstructionist have been assigned to the case.
The SIU asks anyone with information, including videos or photos, to come forward.
The SIU is an independent agency that investigates when the actions of police may have resulted in death, serious injury, sexual assault, and/or a shooting.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Nov. 2, 2025.
