Three people are in hospital following a five car collision in Breslau.

A portion of hwy. 7 between Greenhouse Road and Shantz Station was closed for several hours this morning as OPP investigated the incident.

The crash happened just before 6 a.m. Monday morning.

Police say one person was transported to hospital via Ornge air ambulance in critical condition but her injury status has since been downgraded to non-life threatening. The extent of the injuries sustained by the other two individuals involved is unclear.

All lanes on Hwy 7 to be opened shortly, OPP say.
