Posted November 14, 2026​

​

The province's Special Investigations Unit (SIU) has invoked its mandate following an incident east of Loretto. 

 

Early this morning (November 14), shortly before 2 am, Nottawasaga OPP were conducting traffic enforcement on County Road 1 when a passenger vehicle was observed to be travelling at a high rate of speed. A short time later, the vehicle was involved in a single-vehicle collision.

 

The driver and the passenger of the vehicle were transported to a local hospital with injuries. 

 

At this post, County Road 1 is currently closed from Adjala-Tecumseth Town Line to Concession Road 7, as the on-scene investigation continues.

 

The OPP notified the SIU, which invoked its mandate. As a result, the OPP will not be able to provide further information.
