Ed Sanchuk told CTV News.

Littlewood Drive was closed between Cooke Road and Westdel Bourne while police investigated, but as of 4:50 pm has since been reopened.

The cause of the crash is currently unknown.

“To the witnesses, the Good Samaritans, and bystanders who stopped, thank you,” Sanchuk said.
