ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (WKBW) — A bad crash during Monday night's snowstorm has left one person seriously injured.

According to the Orchard Park Fire Company, two cars collided at the intersection of Armor Dulles and Murphy Roads, just before 5:30 p.m. on Monday.

The impact of the crash sent one of the vehicles off the road and into a wooded area making it challenging for first responders to rescue the occupants inside. Firefighters had to use four different tools to free the people trapped inside the cars involved in the crash.

One person was taken to ECMC with serious injuries. The cause of the accident is under investigation.
