OPP lay charges in alleged staged collision

Ontario Provincial Police have laid fraud charges against 11 people for allegedly staging a collision on Highway 400 north of Toronto in June 2009, the National Post reports.
According to the paper, nine occupants of a car and minivan, as well as two tow-truck drivers staged an early-morning collision on June 22, 2009 on Highway 400 in King Township.
"According to police, investigators became suspicious when accounts of the collision did not match the type of damage apparent on the vehicles, leading officers to believe that the collision and injuries had been staged," the National Post reported.
Canadian Press said the police investigation included information provided by insurers.
