A crash just north of St. Thomas sent two people to hospital Saturday morning.

OPP closed Ron McNeil Line between Wellington Road and Dalewood Road after two cars hit head-on just before 6 a.m. near the train tracks.

According to Central Elgin Fire District Chief Murray DeCorte, the drivers of both vehicles had to be cut out of the vehicles, and one was taken directly to London Health Science Centre with neck injuries.

He added that driver was speaking and could feel all his extremities.

Decorte said there was slush on the roads at that time.

There is no word on the severity of the injuries at this time.
