Brantford Police have charged a Brantford man involved in a motorcycle crash that took the life of a Puslinch man.
The incident happened around 1:50 a.m. Wednesday on King George Road, where police responded to a two-vehicle collision involving a car and a motorcycle.
The collision left debris all over the road and sent the car into a nearby home, which then caught fire.
The motorcyclist, a 70-year-old Puslinch man, was taken to a trauma centre where he was pronounced dead.
The driver of the car, a 39-year-old Brantford man, had minor injuries.
The residents of the home were not injured in the collision but were displaced from their home due to structural damage caused in the collision.
Brantford Police announced Saturday afternoon that the 39-year-old man had been charged with dangerous operation causing death, impaired operation causing death, and stunt driving.
Investigators believe additional individuals may have been present in the car or spent time with the driver prior to the collision.
“Police are seeking to identify and speak with these individuals to better understand the circumstances leading up to this incident,” Brantford Police said in a statement.
The investigation remains ongoing.
