Charges laid in fatal Gravenhurst collision

The Bracebridge Detachment of the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) has laid charges in relation to a fatal collision that occurred on Muskoka Road 169 in Gravenhurst on August 5, 2025.

On August 5, 2025, at 6:45 p.m., Bracebridge OPP officers, along with Muskoka EMS and Gravenhurst Fire Department, responded to 9-1-1 calls from members of the public about a two-vehicle collision that occurred on Muskoka Road 169 near Narrows Road in Gravenhurst. The collision claimed two lives, those of a 50-year-old Gravenhurst man and a 61-year-old Muskoka Lakes Township man.

  • Operation of a Motor Vehicle Causing Death X 2
  • Operation while Impaired- Over 80.
