It's April 19th. Welcome to Canada News today, powered by AI. I'm Corey with the story. Three people landed in the hospital after a car slammed into a building in Scarborough Saturday evening around 6.45 pm, near highway, 401 and Kennedy Road. Toronto police say the vehicle clipped a pole first, then crashed sideways into the structure, pinning a pedestrian underneath. The firefighters jumped in for a tough extracation job, pulling out the driver, a passenger and that pedestrian with serious coordination. The car ended up flipped on its side, making the whole scene chaotic but contained. Chief Jim Jessif shouted out his crews on social media for their exceptional precision and care in handling the rescue. Folks on scenes saw the pros at work, turning a potential disaster into a controlled save. Police confirmed the pedestrian's injuries aren't life-threatening, while the driver and passenger, both in their 70s, only had minor bumps. No word yet on charges or what caused the crash.

Authorities are still piecing it together, but quick action from first responders kept things from getting worse. Another reminder to stay sharp on, those busy roads.
