OPP identify second victim of fiery Highway 400 crash

The OPP has released the name of a second person who died in a fiery, multi-vehicle pile up on Highway 400 Halloween night.

OPP Sgt. Kerry Schmidt said the coroner has identified the driver of a mini van to be Micheal John Landry, 41, from Oshawa.

Formal identification of a third victim is still pending.

Schmidt has said due to the fire, identification was 'time-consuming and meticulous.'

The collision caused a massive fireball and countless explosions on Highway 400 between Highway 88 and 89 and sent motorists running for their lives. 

The first victim to be formally identified was a married father of nine children from North Bay.

Benjamin Dunn, 37, was driving one of two fuel tankers involved in the 14-vehicle collision, according to Schmidt.

Schmidt said Monday there is no word yet on whether charges will be laid or are pending.

"The investigation as to who caused this collision, what caused this collision, what were the circumstances that were around this collision are still ongoing," he said 

The OPP is conducting a forensic investigation and speaking with witnesses.

Investigators are appealing to any witnesses who have not yet spoken to police to come forward and contact the Aurora OPP.
