LONDON, ONT -- A police pursuit in London ended Thursday afternoon with a suspect vehicle crashing.

The area of White Oaks Road near Westminster Drive was closed to traffic after the crash.

Officers approached and the suspect vehicle fled, colliding with a police cruiser.

“Three people were transported to hospital by paramedic services. Their injuries right now are unknown,” Bough said.

No names have been released and the SIU is investigating.
