The male driver and three people standing nearby were killed, while a fourth pedestrian was injured by debris caused by the collision. In an email Tuesday afternoon, Hamilton police media relations Const.

“There are elements of this investigation that take time and need to be processed through the Ontario forensic pathology unit and we continue to work with them closely to confirm positive identity,” wrote Ernst. She added that the victims’ identities may only be released at the discretion of family members, who may not want that information to be public.
