Officials say a woman was rushed to a trauma centre on Sunday after she was hit by a truck in Toronto’s east end.
Emergency crews were called to the area of Woodbine Avenue and Kingston Road after 11:30 a.m.
Police said a pedestrian was hit by a truck and became trapped underneath the vehicle. People worked to lift the truck off the pedestrian, who was initially unresponsive but later became alert, and she was taken to hospital.
Toronto paramedics said they transported a woman in her 40s to hospital in serious condition.
Paramedics said the victim’s injuries did not appear to be life-threatening.
Roads were closed in the area for the investigation.
Images from the scene showed a damaged bicycle near a pickup truck, but officers didn’t say whether or not the woman was riding a bike at the time of the incident.
