MADISON TOWNSHIP, Ohio (WCMH) — Two people were injured, one critically, in a traffic accident Sunday afternoon near the south side of Columbus.

Both of the victims, one in critical condition and the other in a stable condition, were taken to Mount Carmel East.

Details as to what caused the crash have not been released.

Ebright Road was closed between Bixford Avenue and Bixby Road for safety reasons because the crash involved two side-by-side telephones being hit and damaged, Hahn said. AEP repaired the poles and the road is expected to reopen by approximately 5 p.m. Sunday.

The Madison Township Fire Department was assisted at the scene by Columbus Division of Fire.
