Woman found dead after crash in Munsee-Delaware that led to multi-county pursuit

Three collisions, two suspects, one person dead.

Ontario Provincial Police are continuing to investigate a wild series of events on Saturday that began with an early morning collision in Munsee-Delaware Nation, and ended with two men arrested, one at a home in Brantford.

Emergency crews, including Oneida and Chippewas of the Thames police services, were called to a single-vehicle crash on Jubilee Road near Dodem Way around 5:30 a.m.

When they arrived, an unresponsive woman, 24, was located at the scene and taken to hospital, where she was pronounced dead, police said.

No other identifying information about the victim has been released, and her death is being investigated by the OPP’s Criminal Investigation Branch, police said.

“It was determined that two males involved in the incident had fled and were involved in the theft of a vehicle. One male was located in the area and was taken into custody without incident,” police said in a media statement Saturday.

Police said the other male suspect drove into Oxford county, where he was involved in a collision. It’s alleged he then stole another vehicle, and was involved in another collision along Hwy. 24 in Brant County around 10:30 a.m.

He allegedly fled on foot and was located by Brantford police and the OPP at a nearby home.

No other information has been released by police, other than investigations into the woman’s death and the collisions are ongoing. Neither suspect was physically injured.

Police said the two men will appear in court in London at a later date, however they did not specify any charges.

St. Augustine Prep Hermits vs. Lenape Indians

Suggested Video

The St. Augustine Prep Hermits will head out on the road to face off against the Lenape Indians at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday. St. Augustine Prep’s pitching crew has only allowed 3.1 runs per game this season, so Lenape’s hitters will have their work cut out for them.

St. Augustine Prep is coming in off a wild two-game stretch: after soaring to 19 runs on Wednesday, they were much more limited against Holy Ghost Prep on Thursday. They took a 4-1 hit to the loss column at the hands of the Firebirds. The game marked the Hermits’ lowest-scoring contest so far this season.

St. Augustine Prep saw three different players step up and record at least one hit. One of them was Joey Erace, who scored a run and stole a base while going 2-for-4.

Meanwhile, the third road match was the charm for Lenape, as they earned their first away win of the season. Everything went their way against Rancocas Valley on Thursday as they made off with a 14-3 victory. The Indians not only won on Thursday, but they posted their biggest win since May 1, 2024.

Having lost for the first time this season, St. Augustine Prep fell to 8-1. As for Lenape, they picked up their first road win, bumping their record up to 2-3.

St. Augustine Prep came out on top in a nail-biter against Lenape in their previous meeting back in April of 2024, sneaking past 8-7. The rematch might be a little tougher for the Hermits since the team won’t have the home-field advantage this time around. We’ll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
