A mother and baby have serious injuries after they were struck by a vehicle in Toronto, officials say.

Toronto police said the incident happened in the area of Mount Pleasant Road and Davisville Avenue. Emergency crews responded to the scene at 8:45 a.m. Thursday.

Police said that an adult and child were struck and that the driver remained at the scene.

Paramedics told Global News the victims were a mother and baby.

The two were taken to separate trauma centres, both with serious injuries, paramedics said.

The child’s injuries were reported to be non-life-threatening, though it was initially unclear if the mother was in life-threatening condition. In an update, however, police said they were both in non-life-threatening condition.

Davisville Avenue was closed in the area after the collision but has since reopened.
