A Warren police officer and another driver were injured in a vehicle crash on Wednesday.

The crash happened near the intersection of Nine Mile Road and Van Dyke. Police say the officer was leaving a shopping plaza after conducting a traffic stop and attempted to turn left onto Nine Mile Road.

Police say a dump truck and another vehicle on eastbound Nine Mile stopped to allow the officer to enter the roadway when a third vehicle, also traveling eastbound, collided with the officer. Police believe the driver and officer could not see around the dump truck.

The officer and the driver were taken to a hospital for minor injuries.

The investigation is ongoing.
