LONDON, Ont. — Three people are facing numerous charges after an allegedly stolen car collided with another vehicle in London, Ont., and killed a local woman.

Ontario's Special Investigations Unit says a London Police officer spotted what that force described as a suspected stolen vehicle early on Wednesday morning and located it a short time later.

London police allege it had collided with another vehicle, killing the 62-year-old woman inside. 

She has been identified as Colleen Slota of London. 

City police say they have since arrested two men and a woman in the case and laid multiple charges against each, including possession of property obtained by crime over $5,000.

The SIU, which acts as the province's police watchdog, continues to investigate the crash.
