The collision is under investigation, but it happened around 9:30 p.m. and involved a motorcycle and two larger vehicles, said the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) in a statement Monday.
Five people were transported to the hospital, according to police: two with serious, life-threatening injuries, including the motorcycle driver, and three with non-life-threatening injuries.
The westbound highway is closed at the Camden East Road or County Road 4 interchange and is expected to reopen later Monday, OPP said.
