A four-year-old child who was ejected from a vehicle during a crash on Highway 401 in Mississauga has died, Ontario Provincial Police say.

Sgt. Kerry Schmidt tweeted Monday night that the child had been taken off life support, sending condolences to the family.

The two-vehicle crash happened Thursday afternoon on the eastbound lanes of the highway near Winston Churchill Boulevard, and involved an SUV and a transport truck. The SUV ended up on its roof, police said.

The driver of the SUV suffered minor injuries and a two-year-old child in the same vehicle was not hurt.

The driver of the transport truck did not suffer any injuries and remained at the scene, according to police.
