Multiple people were hurt when a pickup truck collided with a TTC bus in North York early Thursday, emergency services say.
The crash happened around 4:20 a.m. at the corner of Yonge Street and Finch Avenue.
There is conflicting information about exactly how many people were injured.
Paramedics said six people were taken to hospital, including one person from the pickup truck and two people who were on the bus who went to a trauma centre. All of them have serious but non-life threatening injuries.
Three other people also went to a local hospital with minor injuries, according to paramedics.
Police said as many as eight went to hospital, including the TTC bus driver.
A male who was behind the wheel of the pickup truck tried to leave the scene on foot but was arrested a short time later, police said.
Finch is closed in both directions at Yonge. The two right lanes of northbound Yonge are also closed at the intersection.
