Earlier in the day, Ornge air ambulance told CTV News they airlifted a teen struck by a vehicle to a Hamilton General Hospital with critical injuries following the crash.
Waterloo region police have since said the pedestrian was a 21-year-old man who suffered serious but non-life threatening injuries.
The intersection was closed for several hours as police investigated but has since reopened.
Those who live nearby and use this round a bout's crosswalks say they're not surprised by this incident.
"I feel that the cars go through really fast, and many of them don't stop as I've seen," said Eliska bilek, a resident who lives nearby. "Cause when I'm waiting at the crosswalk, at least five cars pass before someone will stop."
Correction
