A Toronto man who allegedly fled the scene of a tragic crash that killed one person and hospitalized another has been arrested by police.

Toronto Police said a man was arrested on October 20 in connection with the fatal accident.

Investigators say a Gold Pontiac Montana van and a black sedan were travelling westbound on Burnhamthorpe Road at a high rate of speed when the van collided with a Honda CRV that was going south on Shaver, causing that vehicle to flip over.

Police had been searching for a driver who fled the scene.

The driver of the CRV, a 59-year-old man, was pronounced dead at the scene.

The driver of the van was taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.
