2 men badly injured in 5-vehicle Scarborough crash

Two men were badly injured in a five-vehicle crash in Scarborough early Wednesday, emergency services say.

The collision happened around 6:30 a.m. at the corner of Markham Road and Milner Avenue, just north of Highway 401.

One of the vehicles rolled over, and a large field of debris could be seen scattered throughout the intersection.

Toronto Fire said crews pulled three men from vehicles, while a total of five people were hurt.

One was in critical condition, while another had injuries that paramedics called very serious to potentially life-threatening. Both were taken to trauma centres.

The other three had more minor injuries, paramedics said, though two of them were sent to hospital for treatment.

Both the intersection and the Highway 401 off-ramp onto Markham Road N. was closed for the police investigation. Drivers should expect delays in the area.
