Two people were transported to hospitals following a Thursday morning crash.

Emergency crews responded to Highway 33 at Interstate 35 for a black SUV versus a semi-truck just before 9 a.m.

The SUV was found with heavy front-end damage with all airbags deployed inside. Two people were able to get out of the vehicle, but a passenger was found unconscious.

A helicopter was placed on standby but was canceled as the victim was transported to OU Medical Center by Guthrie EMS.

LifeNet transported a second person.

The truck driver complained of minor injuries and was treated at the scene.

According to multiple witnesses, the black SUV sped through a red light and smashed into the truck, which was attempting to gain access to the northbound I-35 on-ramp with a flashing yellow turn signal.

Traffic was able to move at the busy intersection with officers directing traffic until the scene was cleared.
