One person is being taken to hospital after the vehicle they were travelling in collided with a white van on Bernard Avenue.

The crash forced the car onto a sidewalk near Burtch Road on Friday about 3 p.m.

The airbags inside the vehicle were deployed and emergency crews had to extricate the passenger out of the car.

It’s unclear, at this time, why the vehicles crashed.

Traffic was slow going on Bernard Avenue, but the vehicles have since been towed.
