Tragedy Strikes on a Blenheim Area Road

Chatham-Kent Police are investigating a deadly crash near Blenheim.

Emergency crews responded to Allison Line between Charing Cross Road and Erieau Road shortly before 10 o’clock Thursday night.

Authorities say it appears the vehicle was heading northeast on Allison when the driver lost control and the vehicle rolled several times before coming to rest on its roof.

Three girls, a 16-year-old and two 17-year-olds, were taken to hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

A 17-year-old young woman was pronounced dead at the scene. Police are not releasing the victim’s name out of respect for her family’s privacy.

The Chatham-Kent Police Traffic Management Unit has taken over the investigation. If anyone has any information, please contact Constable Kristen Charron at kristenc@chatham-kent.ca or 519-355-1092.
