Ontario’s police watchdog said they are still investigating the wrongway police chase on Highway 401 that resulted in four deaths in Whitby in April.

A Special Investigations Unit (SIU) statement said they have collected and are reviewing a “substantial amount of evidence,” including video from in-car-camera, drone footage, body-worn camera footage, Ministry of Transportation footage and civilian recordings.

Dozens of interviews have also been conducted since the SIU began their investigation on April 30.
