The Thunder Bay Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) have laid charges following a serious motor vehicle collision that occurred on January 6, 2024.
On January 6, 2024, at approximately 12:30 p.m., members of the Thunder Bay OPP Detachment along with Fire and emergency medical services (EMS) responded to a serious motor vehicle collision on Highway 102 involving a passenger motor vehicle and commercial motor vehicle. The passenger of the passenger motor vehicle was transported to hospital by EMS to be treated for life-altering injuries.
As a result of the investigation, the driver of the passenger motor vehicle, Morgan GOOD, 20-years-old, of Fort Frances, has been arrested and charged under the Criminal Code with:
- Dangerous Operation Causing Bodily Harm
- Impaired Operation Causing Bodily Harm
The accused has been released from custody and is scheduled to appear before the Ontario Court of Justice in Thunder Bay on September 26, 2024.
Traffic safety remains a top priority of the OPP and is a key component of the OPP’s public safety mandate. Investigations resulting in the loss of life and serious injuries can be complex to investigate. As the vast majority of fatal collisions are preventable, thorough and accurate investigations help ensure that motorists who cause these collisions are held accountable for their driving behaviours. The victims and their families deserve no less.
