Stolen vehicle accident ejects driver causing fatality

On Sunday, September 20th, 2015 at 1:20 A.M., Six Nations Police were investigating a report of a stolen vehicle being dumped at a residence on Mohawk Road. While officers were at that location a blue 2005 GMC pickup truck drove onto the property. After seeing police the female driver of the truck sped away at a high rate of speed.

Believing the truck was involved in the incident being investigated, officers attempted to locate the vehicle which had left the area travelling northbound on Mohawk Road. Officers located the GMC pickup at Mohawk Road and 2nd Line Road. The truck had failed to stop at the intersection, entered the ditch and rolled over, coming to rest on the driver’s side. The female driver was found pinned under the driver’s side of the truck. Investigators believe she had been ejected from the vehicle when it rolled over.

Six Nations Fire Department were able to raise the vehicle off of the driver. Paramedics attempted to resuscitate her but were unsuccessful. The 31 year old Six Nations woman succumbed to her injuries. The woman’s name has not been released as police attempt to notify her family.

The 2005 GMC pickup involved in the accident had been reported stolen from the London area.

The Six Nations Police requested the assistance of the Ontario Provincial Police with this investigation. The accident is still under investigation.
