Crash Involving TTC Bus Sends Four to Hospital
Four people, including a child, were taken to hospital after a collision involving a Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) bus on Wednesday afternoon. The incident occurred in the city's west end, prompting a significant emergency response.
Toronto police reported that the crash happened around 3:30 p.m. at the intersection of Bloor Street West and Dundas Street West. Emergency crews arrived to find multiple victims with varying injuries. Paramedics transported four individuals to local hospitals, including one child whose condition was not immediately disclosed.
The TTC bus driver remained at the scene and is cooperating with investigators. The cause of the collision is under investigation, and no charges have been filed at this time. Police are reviewing traffic camera footage and speaking with witnesses.
Traffic in the area was disrupted for several hours as crews worked to clear the scene and investigate. The TTC has not yet released a statement regarding the incident.
This incident comes amid ongoing concerns about transit safety in the city. Earlier this year, the TTC implemented new safety measures following a series of collisions involving buses and pedestrians.
Authorities urge anyone with information or dashcam footage to contact Toronto police.
