Peel police said officers have located and arrested a 38-year Brampton man believed to be the driver of a Corvette involved in a single vehicle crash in Brampton on Saturday.

Constable Akhil Mooken said dispatchers received a call just before 5:35 p.m. about a severely damaged Corvette that had rolled over in the area of Chinguacousy and Mayfield Roads.

When police and emergency crews arrived on scene, the driver was nowhere to be found. First responders were unsure if the driver was ejected from the vehicle or fled the scene.

Investigators dispatched a drone and began a grid search of fields in the area searching for anyone who may be injured or in need of assistance.

However, Mooken said the alleged driver was located 2.5 kilometres away with minor injuries at the residence of the registered owner of the vehicle. The accused was arrested for dangerous driving and failing to remain at the scene of a collision.

Mooken added charges are pending and police don't believe the vehicle was stolen. The cause of the collision has not yet been determined.

“I don’t believe the vehicle was stolen. We’re still investigating really why he left the scene, but it’s still fairly early to determine that,” he said.

Chinguacousy Road remained closed from Mayfield as of 7:45 p.m. for the investigation and cleanup.

Witnesses or anyone with information is asked to contact Peel police at 905-453-2121.
