Two injured in five-car pileup in North Point
Police said at least two people were injured in a five-car pileup in North Point on Tuesday.  The collision took place on the fast lane of the west-bound highway of the Island Eastern Corridor at around 8am, when a private car came to a stop.  A light goods vehicle, two other private cars and two taxis at the back, however, were unable to brake in time.  Officers said a four-year-old passenger and a woman in her 40s were injured and sent to Eastern Hospital for treatment. The accident forced the closure of the fast lane for three hours before it reopened at around 11am. Traffic in the area was very congested at one point.
