The driver in a fatal east-end collision that killed two others last summer has pleaded guilty to several charges, including impaired driving causing death.
The charges relate to a crash on Aug. 2, 2023, at the intersection of St. Laurent Boulevard and Montreal Road that left two vehicles fiery crumpled wrecks, knocked down a traffic light and spread debris across the east-end intersection.
Franck Ntwari, 41, and Innocent Muhoza, 44, died in one vehicle, while the driver of the other vehicle was extricated by firefighters.
In September, police announced charges that driver: a woman in her 30s, Shallen McKay, who was the sole survivor of the collision.
McKay faced charges of impaired driving causing death, dangerous operation causing death, as well as operation while prohibited, breach of probation and taking a motor vehicle without consent.
On Friday morning, Mckay entered the guilty plea at the Ottawa Courthouse.
Mckay pleaded guilty to two charges of impaired driving causing death, and one charge each of driving while prohibited and taking a motor vehicle without consent.
CBC previously reported that McKay has a previous conviction of impaired driving dating back to 2018.
