Two teenagers from Newmarket were injured after a vehicle collided with a hydro pole, fire hydrant and multiple parked cars last night in Bradford West Gwillimbury.

South Simcoe Police Service officers responded to a single-vehicle collision on Holland Street West and Church Street Monday, Oct. 9 at about 11:30 p.m., according to a news release.

Upon police arrival, the two occupants of the BMW were outside the vehicle, police said. The 18-year-old woman and 19-year-old man were transported to hospital with non life-threatening injuries, police said. 

Holland Street was closed in both directions for more than four hours while crews attended to the downed wires and damaged pole and fire hydrant, police said. The road has since reopened.

No charges have been laid at this time and the investigation into the collision is ongoing, police said.

Police are appealing to anyone who witnessed the vehicle, driver and/or the collision, and anyone with security or dash camera video that can assist in the investigation, to contact Const. Mat Winch at 905-775-3311, 705-436-2141, ext. 1441, [email protected], or contact Crime Stoppers.
