Toronto police launched a search on Saturday morning for two men who abandoned the scene of a two‑vehicle collision in the city’s Chinatown district. The crash occurred at the intersection of Spadina Avenue and Dundas Street at approximately 5:20 a.m., prompting a rapid response from emergency services.
First responders arrived shortly after the collision was reported, securing the site and providing assistance as needed. Both vehicles involved sustained damage, and the occupants of one vehicle, identified as two male adults, fled before officers could make contact. The other vehicle remained at the scene and was examined by investigators.
Toronto Police Service officers have opened a criminal investigation into the incident. Detectives are reviewing surveillance footage from nearby businesses and traffic cameras to establish a clearer picture of the events leading up to the crash and the subsequent departure of the two men. The investigation also includes gathering witness statements from individuals who may have seen the vehicles or the occupants in the moments before or after the impact.
The police search is focused on the immediate Chinatown neighbourhood and surrounding streets, with officers conducting canvasses and checking local establishments for any additional information. The incident has added to the early‑morning traffic concerns in the area, and authorities are urging residents to remain vigilant as the investigation proceeds.
As the manhunt continues, Toronto Police Service has not released further details about the identities of the men or the circumstances that led to the collision. The department will provide updates as more information becomes available and the search progresses.
