On Tuesday, March 22, 2011, at approximately 8:20 p.m., Hlias and his wife were crossing Green Road on the south side of Barton Street East in Stoney Creek. At that time they were struck by a motor vehicle that was traveling southbound on Green Road.

The woman suffered serious injuries and was transported to hospital. She later recovered from her injuries. Hlias Kotsopoulos was dragged 100 metres southbound by the vehicle.

Unfortunately, his injuries were fatal and he died at the scene.
