Face of Nation : A 46-year-old man was hospitalized with life-threatening injuries after the driver of a car left the road and smashed into a restaurant in Mississauga on Wednesday, Peel police say.

Emergency crews responded to calls that a car had driven into a restaurant at Queen Victoria Avenue and Lorne Park Road just before 11:30 a.m, Const. Akhil Mooken said. 

On arrival they found the man as well as the 86-year-old male driver and his female passenger. It was not immediately clear if the younger man was inside the restaurant or a pedestrian.  The 46-year-old man was taken to a Toronto-area trauma centre, while the other two victims were taken to local hospital as a precaution.

Peel police closed the intersection so that the force’s major collision bureau could investigate. They say motorists should avoid the area.
