South Simcoe police say five people, including two children, were taken to hospital Sunday night following a two-vehicle crash in Innisfil.
At around 5:30 p.m., Sept. 24, emergency crews responded to a two-vehicle collision in the area of 10 Sideroad and 6th Line.
"A vehicle travelling westbound on the 6th Line failed to stop for a stop sign and collided with a vehicle travelling southbound on 10 Sideroad," police stated in a news release. "The westbound vehicle then struck a utility pole, trapping the four occupants."
Police say a man and woman, both aged 38, and two children, ages five and eight, all from Woodbridge, were freed by Innisfil firefighters.
The man and eight-year-old child were transported to a local hospital where they were treated and released, according to police. The woman and five-year-old child were airlifted by Ornge to a Toronto trauma centre where they are being treated for non-life-threatening injuries.
The sole occupant of the southbound vehicle, a 60-year-old Bradford woman, was taken to a local hospital where she was treated and released.
Roads were closed for close to nine hours while investigators completed a collision reconstruction and crews replaced the utility pole.
The investigation is ongoing.
