Four people, two men and two women, were taken to hospital early Sunday morning when the pickup they were in crashed into and cracked off a concrete light pole.

The pole fell into the eastbound lane of the Prince Philip Parkway just west of the Allandale Road intersection, closing that lane to traffic.

The front driver’s side tire was torn from the truck during the incident which occurred just before 2 a.m.

None of the injuries was considered serious and the pickup was extensively damaged.

The RNC is investigating.
