Toronto police say the person who died after a vehicle crashed into a business in Toronto on Wednesday was a 67-year-old man. Officers responded around 2:28 p.m. near Dufferin Street and Finch Avenue W. to a call for a personal injury collision, police said in a release Thursday. The driver, a 93-year-old male, lost control of his vehicle for unknown reasons and drove into a storefront striking five people who were in the store at the time, the release said.

Investigators say 89-year-old Klara Litvak, who lived nearby on Surf Avenue, died after being struck just before 1 p.m. Wednesday on Neptune Avenue. Police have identified the woman killed when a car reversed onto a sidewalk in Coney Island, hitting three people. According to police, an 86-year-old man driving a Chrysler SUV was backing out of a parking spot when he put the car in reverse and hit three women.
