Four people were hurt overnight when several cars and a bicycle collided.

The incident began when a taxi was double-parked on St. Denis St. near Duluth Ave.

Police say a cyclist passing the taxi hit a car that was going north.

The driver of the car then lost control, veering into southbound traffic and hitting a car head-on. The vehicles then careened into a car parked on the west side of St. Denis.

Four people were taken to hospital with multiple injuries. One person is in serious condition but his life is not in danger.
