15-year-old boy pronounced dead at scene, 15-year-old girl also injured
A 15-year-old pedestrian is dead after a collision in South Frontenac Township on Saturday.
A full-size van struck the teen boy at around 5:30 p.m., according to Ontario Provincial Police. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Another pedestrian — a 15-year-old female — was transported to hospital with minor injuries, OPP said.
The 57-year-old driver from Harrowsmith, Ont., was unhurt and was given an immediate licence suspension after police said they detected alcohol using a breath test.
As of 2:30 p.m. Sunday, OPP had not announced any charges.
The collision happened on Rosedale Road between Alton Road East and Freeman Road, approximately 35 kilometres north of downtown Kingston.
The road was closed for several hours for an investigation but has since reopened.
OPP has asked witnesses or anyone with dash cam or doorbell camera footage to contact them at 1-888-310-1122 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).
