Emergency services were called to Barton Street West and MacNab Street North just after 9 p.m. for reports of a serious car crash.

Hamilton police Const. Krista-Lee Ernst said the 73-year-old was pronounced dead in hospital and the 45-year-old was critically hurt, but in stable condition in hospital.

Video posted on social media from a MacNab Street North property shows a car speeding north on MacNab, blowing through a stop sign at Colbourne Street without braking, and then continuing toward Barton. At that intersection, the car T-bones a westbound car on the driver’s side without slowing. The intersection of Barton and MacNab is controlled by four-way stop signs.

No charges have been laid and the investigation by the collision reconstruction unit is ongoing.
