Ottawa Fire Services said crews had to free a driver who was trapped in one of the vehicles. Firefighters first stabilized the vehicle and then had to completely remove the driver’s side door because of the extent of damage from a side-impact collision.

Firefighters disconnected the batteries of the other vehicles.
