Zivcic was responding to a call on Nov. 30 when his unmarked cruiser collided with another car at Bloor Street West and Neilson Drive, near Highway 427.
The officer, who worked in the force for six years, was taken to St. Michael’s Hospital where he died last Monday. He was Toronto’s 26th officer to die while on duty since the Toronto police force began in 1957.
