Police are investigating after a grandmother and a 3-year-old child in a stroller were struck by a vehicle near Foley Stadium in Worcester on Wednesday.
Emergency crews responded to the crash on Chandler Street about 10:30 a.m.
Both the grandmother and the child were taken to a nearby hospital, where they were listed in stable condition.
A red sedan was stopped at the crosswalk when a silver sedan slammed into it, veered off the road, and hit the victims as they were about to cross the street, according to police.
Video from the Sky7 HD showed a toppled pedestrian crossing sign in the street, clothing on the ground, and a mangled stroller on the sidewalk.
The road has been shut down in both directions as investigators work to gather evidence at the scene.
No additional information was immediately available.
