Toronto Police said in a news release issued late Saturday night that the pedestrian who was struck in that collision — a 71-year-old man — died of his injuries in a hospital this weekend.
Police said they responded to the crash on Thursday at about 11:50 p.m. in the Kennedy Rd.-McNicoll Ave. area of north Scarborough.
A white Cadillac Escalade travelling westbound on McNicoll turned left onto Kennedy and collided with the pedestrian before fleeing the scene.
