Four ambulances came in response to the pin-in crash at 18th and Canal Streets about 9 a.m., said Fire Media Affairs Cmdr. Will Knight.

A pin-in crash is an accident that results in car occupants being pinned inside a vehicle.

An SUV and a Dodge Stratus were involved in the crash, Fire Media spokesman Joe Roccasalva said. The SUV was flipped upside down.

Four people were taken to John H. Stroger Jr. Hospital of Cook County. They were reported to be in serious but stable condition.
