Several people were injured after a crash on Cape Cod Monday morning.

According to Centerville-Osterville-Marstons Mills Fire & Rescue Department, at just after 8:45 a.m., the Centerville-Osterville-Marstons Mills Fire Department responded to the area of Great Hill Drive and Oak Street in Marstons Mills for a reported two-car motor vehicle crash with entrapment.

Upon arrival, crews found a commercial moving truck with three occupants on board that had collided with a passenger car containing a single occupant who was trapped inside. Firefighters initiated extrication efforts using hydraulic cutting tools and successfully removed the patient from the vehicle.

A MedFlight helicopter was requested; however, the patient was ultimately transported as a trauma alert by ground ambulance to Cape Cod Hospital. Two of the occupants of the moving truck were also transported with minor injuries, while a third individual refused treatment at the scene.

Mutual aid ambulances from Hyannis and Barnstable Fire Departments responded to assist, along with support from the Barnstable Police Department.

No other information was released.

The crash remains under investigation.
