A Halton police officer has been charged after a stolen Hummer crashed into a tractor-trailer in Mississauga last year following a police chase, according to Ontario’s Special Investigations Unit.<\/p>\n

Sgt. David Joseph is charged with dangerous operation of a conveyance causing bodily harm in connection with the March 12, 2025 incident, the SIU said in a news release Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The chase began in Oakville and ended in Mississauga, the SIU said. According to the SIU, Halton police were investigating the theft of a Kia Sedona from an Oakville home, that also involved a stolen GMC Hummer, when the drivers of both vehicles fled the scene.<\/p>\n

The police chase, allegedly led by Joseph, ended when the driver of the Hummer collided with the tractor-trailer at Winston Churchill Boulevard and Lakeshore Road E.<\/p>\n

The 26-year-old driver of the Hummer was seriously injured, arrested and taken to hospital for treatment, the SIU said.<\/p>\n

SIU Director Joseph Martino said in the release that he had “reasonable grounds” to believe the officer committed a criminal offence.<\/p>\n

Joseph is due to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in Milton on Nov. 23.<\/p>\n

“As the matter is before the courts, and in consideration of the fair trial interests of the accused, the SIU will not provide further comment on the investigation,” the SIU said. <\/p>\n

The SIU is an independent civilian agency that investigates incidents involving police in Ontario that result in death, serious injury, the discharge of a firearm at a person or allegations of sexual assault.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Listen to this article Estimated 2 minutes The audio version of this article is generated by AI-based technology.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":954511,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[194297],"tags":[49,48,55405],"class_list":["post-954510","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mississauga","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-mississauga"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/954510","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=954510"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/954510\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/954511"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=954510"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=954510"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=954510"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
