London police are investigating a fatal collision in the city’s south end.
A man was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash at Manning Drive, just west of Old Victoria Road about 6 p.m. Wednesday night.
Police say a red coloured Volkswagen Golf was travelling eastbound on Manning when it veered off the south side of the roadway and collided with a tree. The driver, the lone occupant of the vehicle, was ejected.
The travelled speed of the car is believed by police to be a contributing factor in the cause of the collision.
Police are not releasing his name until his next of kin have been notified.
The investigation has been re-assigned to the traffic management unit and details surrounding the cause of the collision are still under investigation.
Anyone with information in relation to this incident can contact London police at (519) 661-5680 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or www.londoncrimestoppers.com.
