Four people have been injured, two critically, after York Regional Police say a transport truck crashed into a car in Vaughan Wednesday evening.

Emergency crews were called to the intersection of New Huntington Road and Zenway Boulevard, east of Highway 50, just before 7:30 p.m.

A York Region Paramedic Services spokesperson told Global News two patients were taken to a local trauma centre while two other people were treated at the scene of the collision.

Although the specific circumstances leading up to the crash weren’t immediately clear, a police spokesperson said a transport truck rammed into a sedan and forced it into another transport truck before it hit a pole.
