A fiery, multi-car crash in Regina Wednesday night sent four people to hospital, including a four-month-old baby.

It happened at 8:18 p.m. CST at Arcola Avenue and Victoria Avenue.

A man, 33, was slowing down for a red light when his Nissan truck was rear-ended by a Mazda 6, driven by a woman, 26.

The truck burst into flames after the impact and two other vehicles were hit as well.

The two drivers, as well as a woman, 27, and her four-month-old baby from a third vehicle were taken to hospital.

They turned out to have minor injuries.

Police are still investigating. So far, no charges have been laid.
