A man is fighting for his life in the hospital after being struck by the driver of a vehicle in Mississauga late Tuesday afternoon.
The collision happened near Dixie and Rathburn roads.
Peel Regional Police said they were called to that area just before 4 p.m. for reports of an adult male pedestrian who had been hit by a tow truck.
Investigators said both the driver and their vehicle remained on scene.
The pedestrian, meanwhile, is in life-threatening condition. A media officer told CTV News Toronto that they are “being stabilized.”
Rathburn is currently closed in both directions between Dixie and Bough Beeches Boulevard and police are asking drivers to use alternate routes.
More to come. This a developing story.
