## Resource

A deadly crash in Thomastown leaves a 75-year-old dead after a ute plows into his SUV, sending it crashing onto a nature strip — the driver, a 38-year-old man, was arrested but unharmed. Authorities are still investigating and urge witnesses to come forward. Meanwhile, a suspected firebombing at a Sunshine tobacconist left five people safe but sparked a police hunt for a white SUV, while a truck fire on the Hume Highway caused major morning delays with no injuries reported.
