The province’s police watchdog has been called in to investigate after five people were injured following an early morning crash in Etobicoke.
Toronto police said the two-vehicle crash occurred on Carlingview Drive and Disco Road, west of Highway 27, just after midnight.
Five people were taken to the hospital – three with serious but non-life threatening injuries, while two others suffered minor injuries.
Investigators say three people in one of the vehicles were arrested but did not provide any further details as to what charges they may be facing.
A police spokesperson said the province’s Special Investigations Unit has been called in, but did not provide any further details except to say that no police vehicles were involved in the crash and no officers were injured.
The SIU is an independent government agency that investigates the conduct of police officials that may have resulted in death, serious injury, sexual assault and/or the discharge of a firearm at a person.
