One dead after accident in Inwood
August 23, 2022
Lambton OPP say one person has died in an accident at the corner of Courtright Line and Inwood Road.
Around 11 this morning a feed transport traveling east on Courtright Line collided with a white SUV – broadsiding it.
Firefighters from Alvinston were called in immediately. An air ambulance was called, but six people were rushed to hospital by Lambton paramedics by land instead.
A turn signal on the transport could still be seen blinking an hour after the accident occurred. Police were not commenting on the cause of the crash.
Officials say the intersection is likely to be closed late this afternoon or evening because of the investigation.
