Pedestrian

Good news for pedestrians: The warning lights at the Main Street crosswalk in Alexandria are finally being replaced.

New fixtures on both sides of Main are being installed months after a snowplow clipped a light on the east side of the main drag.

The west side light was not damaged but it turned out both of the lights were not up to code.

One person was killed in an incident involving a tractor-trailer and a pedestrian on the eastbound Highway 417 in Champlain township today at 11 a.m.

Highway 417 eastbound was closed at Highway 34, and detours are expected to be in effect for several hours.

December 24, at 4:01 a.m. Stormont-Dundas-Glengarry Ontario Provincial Police officers responded to a report of an adult male pedestrian found injured on County Road 22 (Dyer Rd) east of Highway 138. He was transported to hospital suffering from life-threatening injuries. An investigation into the cause is ongoing.
Anyone with information on this incident is asked to call 1-888-310-1122 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
