Guilty Plea For Truck Driver

A judge has accepted the guilty plea of a 60-year-old London truck driver in connection to a double fatal crash on the 401 in Chatham-Kent.

Leszek Urbaniak pleaded guilty to careless driving, stemming from the crash in May 2014 that killed 35-year-old Marc LaFontaine and his 13-year-old niece Alyssa Smulders who were on their way to Greenview Aviaries.

Urbaniak was initially charged with two counts of dangerous driving causing death.

Sentencing is set for April 18.
