Chatham-Kent police are investigating a serious crash involving two vehicles that sent six people to hospital.
According to police, emergency crews were called to the intersection of Queens Line and Merlin Road in Tilbury East Township just before 9 p.m. on Monday.
Police say one vehicle was traveling eastbound while the other was going westbound on Queens Line.
