This is the best summary I could come up with:
Monica Hudon, spokesperson for the Special Investigations Unit (SIU), said the robbery suspect was also killed in the collision, which involved at least six vehicles.
The pursuit began at an LCBO location in nearby Clarington, when an off-duty officer reported an attempted theft to Durham Regional Police at around 7:50 p.m.
A video circulating on X, formerly Twitter, shows what appears to be a rental van speeding through oncoming traffic with Durham police vehicles close behind.
In another video captured from a different angle and posted to social media, a badly damaged transport truck can be seen wrecked against the concrete median at the collision scene.
Whether it was appropriate for Durham police to pursue the cargo van as it drove the wrong way on the province's busiest highway will be part of the investigation, Hudon said.
The SIU is an arms-length agency that investigates the conduct of police officers in incidents that may have resulted in death, serious injury or the discharge of a firearm.
