Serious crash near London elementary school

One person was transported to hospital with serious injuries after a serious collision in east London Monday morning.

Two pick-up trucks were involved in a serious crash at the intersection of Oxford and McNay Streets in east London around 7 a.m. Monday morning.

The crash happened in front of Blessed Sacrament Catholic Elementary School.

The one truck ended up on its side with the cab of the truck pressed into the fence.

Fire crews had to extricate the driver of that truck and the individual was transported to hospital with what are believed to be serious but non-life-threatening injuries.

Caution tape cordoned off part of the playground inside the fence of the school to ensure children avoided the area.

Parents and children arriving to school had to navigate the crash scene with the help of a crossing guard.

Parents told CTV News that speed and aggressive driving are a constant concern in the area.
