Crash in Townsend leaves one dead, one in hospital

A two-car crash near the border of Norfolk and Haldimand counties left one person dead and one in hospital on Tuesday. First responders from both counties raced to County Line in Townsend around 9:30 a.m. One driver died at the scene, while the other was taken to hospital with what an OPP media release described as “severe injuries.”

County Line between Concession 6 Townsend and Concession 16 Walpole was closed for several hours for the police investigation.
