Police say two people died after they were struck by an out-of-control Tesla car while working at a construction site east of Toronto.
Durham police responded to a call Friday morning for a crash near a large mall called The Shops at Pickering City Centre in Pickering, Ont.
Investigators say a 58-year-old man and a 21-year-old woman were working at a construction site that was fenced off when a Tesla car lost control in an adjacent parking lot, and then struck them.
The man was taken to a local hospital and the woman was airlifted to a trauma centre in Toronto, but neither survived.
The 75-year-old man behind the Tesla’s steering wheel was taken to hospital with minor injuries.
Police say they are investigating the crash and what caused it.
