CLEARFIELD TWP — A two-vehicle accident sent all involved to the hospital Tuesday afternoon on Route 422.

A Toyota SUV and a Subaru sedan crashed around 4 p.m. about 100 yards east of Swartzlander Lane.

According to state police, the male driver of the sedan and two people, a female driver and a juvenile passenger, in the SUV were taken by ambulance to a nearby hospital.

Emergency personnel believed the patients were taken to ACMH Hospital in Kittanning. According to East Butler Fire Chief Derek Thompson, his team used equipment to extract the driver from the SUV.

“There was some entanglement,” Thompson said. “We did have to remove the door.”
