Dump Truck Driver Charged in Fatal Crash

0:00It's April 17th. This is Canada News Today, powered by AI. A dumb truck driver in Hamilton now faces charges after striking and killing a 52-year-old crossing guard last November. It went down on the afternoon of November 13th, 2025, right at the Mohawk Road and upper Wentworth Street intersection. The guard was heading to his shift, but wasn't on duty yet when the crash happened. Police say the drivers stuck around after the incident and fully cooperated with investigators from the jump. Hamilton's mayor, Andrea Horwath, called it heartbreaking at the time, and send condolences straight to the victim's family and friends. This past Friday, cops dropped the news. They charged a 61-year-old Hamilton man with careless driving causing death under the highway traffic. Act. They didn't name him publicly. He's set to hit court this May, so we'll keep an eye on how this plays out for everyone involved.
