Five people were sent to hospital following the derailment of an East End transit train in Scarborough, Ontario. The incident on July 24 prompted the Toronto Transit Commission (TTC) to suspend service indefinitely pending an investigation.

TTC said on social media that the rear car of a train on Line 3 had separated from the rest of the train and had derailed on the southbound route. The cause has not yet been established, and TTC said it was working with the Toronto Police Service and first responders to ensure the safety of everyone on board.
