Several people escaped serious injury Sunday when a Harford County ambulance and a car collided.

The ambulance --with its lights and siren activated -- entered the intersection and was hit by a Hyundai, explained Robert Royster, Harford County Sheriff's Office PIO.

Upon impact, the ambulance struck a Volvo before ending up in a ditch.
