Five people were taken to the hospital to be evaluated after a vehicle hit a van in Southington Thursday, according to police.
The crash happened at about 11:30 a.m. Authorities said the van was stopped for a red traffic light in the left-turn-only lane from West Street to Executive Boulevard when another driver who was heading north on West Street failed to stop and hit the van.
Firefighters said a wheelchair van that was coming from a group home was involved in the crash.
The people who were in the van were transported to a nearby hospital with non-life threatening injuries, according to fire officials.
