A 2-year-old is among those hurt in a spectacular crash in Welland.
A Toyota Corolla slammed into the back of a Buick Rendezvous on Thorold Rd late Sunday afternoon.
The Corolla careened onto the sidewalk, hitting 2 women walking by & the stroller they were pushing with a toddler inside. The car landed on its roof in the driveway of Centennial Secondary School. The SUV wound up on the opposite side of the road.
The pedestrians were rushed to Hamilton General Hospital with serious injuries. The toddler was treated & sent home. The drivers of the car & SUV were treated for minor injuries at Welland's hospital.
Acting Niagara Regional Police Staff Sergeant Jeff Inch tells 610 CKTB News though investigators aren't sure yet how fast the cars involved were going, speed was a factor. He adds the Toyota was definitely going faster than the Buick.
