CHATTANOOGA (WDEF) – A juvenile suffered life threatening injuries in a crash overnight on Bonny Oaks Drive.

The truck was hit by a car as it was turning.

The car went under the rear section of the trailer and hit the axles.

The five passengers (2 adults, 3 children) were trapped and had to be cut out by Chattanooga Firefighters.

Most of them were not seriously hurt, but the one juvenile passenger suffered a serious injury.

Chattanooga Police continue to investigate the crash and blocked Bonny Oaks Drive for much of the morning.
