401 through eastern Ontario remained closed early Wednesday following weather-related collisions that left one person dead, 28 people injured and officials scrambling to contain a chemical spill. Sandra Barr said the first collision at about 2 p.m. just east of Hwy. 137 involved five tractor-trailers and a car. The second collision, also in the westbound lanes and about one kilometre away, involved seven tractor-trailers and three vehicles. Multiple chain reaction crashes then followed the initial collisions.
