Clean-Up Continues on 402

Friday, 20 January 2012 08:36

More than 24 hours after a fatal chain reaction crash, Provincial police continue to remove vehicles that were involved. A section of the eastbound 402 remains closed after Thursday's collision that involved 32 vehicles. The two people killed in that crash have been identified this afternoon as 22-year-old Sherri Millar of Toronto, and 54-year-old Ronald Brown of Sarnia. There's no word when the eastbound 402 will reopen. The westbound section of the highway is restricted to one lane in the area. Police say heavy equipment and hazardous materials experts, and collision investigators, are at the scene.
