The van had six occupants: four adults and two children, police said.

The driver of the van suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries and was airlifted to a Hamilton hospital. A child in that vehicle was also airlifted to hospital as a precaution, police said.

Two others in the van were reported to have suffered minor injuries and didn’t need to go to hospital. It’s not clear if one of those individuals was the other child.

The driver of the van, a 39-year-old Waterloo resident, has been charged with failing to yield to traffic under the Highway Traffic Act.

The operator of the dump truck was not injured, police said.
