Jeffrey Sandles, 22, was pronounced dead at the scene of a horrific sin- gle car crash in Acton early Saturday morning Hal- ton police said alcohol and speed are being considered as factors in the accident. Five occupants of the Hyundai Sonata were also injured when the driver failed to negotiate the curve at Young Street and Eastern Avenue and slammed into a tree on the front lawn of a house. An unidentified 18-year- old female passenger from Erin was airlifted to a To- ronto hospital and, at press time, was listed in critical, but stable condition. Friends of the deceased said the woman is paralyzed below the neck. Two 20 year-old female passengers, both from Georgetown, were taken to a local hospital and then transferred to Hamil- ton General with non-life threatening injuries. Police said one has a broken pelvis and another has a dislocated pelvis. The driver, a 21-year-old Mississauga man, and a male passenger, also from Mississauga, fled the scene. The driver was arrested by police, reportedly shoeless and bloody, on Mill Street almost five hours after the 2:50 a.m. crash. The second man, Andrew Bruist, was located in Mississauga, and charged with offences unrelated to the accident, including breach of proba- tion, breach of recognizance and breach of an undertak- ing. Both suffered minor injuries.. The driver is charged with failing to stop at the scene of an accident causing death, four counts of failing to stop at the scene of an accident causing bodily harm, dan- gerous operation of a motor vehicle causing death, four counts of dangerous oper- ation of a motor vehicle causing bodily harm, three counts of failing to comply with a probation order and possession of a controlled substance. Charged is Todd McGowan. Both McGowan and Bruist remain in cus- tody pending a bail hearing today (Thursday.) On Monday afternoon, the young mother of San- dles baby, who did not want to be identified, her parents and several rela- tives and friends laid roses at the base of the tree that stopped the car, along with a sign that said RIP (Rest in Peace) Daddy and We love you and We will all miss you and We will never 4-get you. Sandles brother-in-law, who identified himself as George, said Sandles had been drinking so he allowed his friend, who he allegedly knew also had been drink- ing, drive his car, reportedly on their way to see a mil- lion dollar house in this area. Visitation for Sandles, who lived in Campbell- ville, is slated for today (Thursday) and tomorrow and the funeral is sched- uled for Saturday in Milton, with interment to follow in Etobicoke. The police investigation continues.
