A Hernando County Sheriff’s Office deputy is among five people who were injured in a wrong-way crash early Thursday morning in Spring Hill.

Investigators say the crash happened around 1:15 a.m. A red sedan was driving the wrong way on Spring Hill Drive and hit a blue sedan that was driving east. The crash caused a chain reaction. A HCSO deputy was driving behind the blue sedan and rear-ended it.

Four people were transported to a local hospital by ambulance. Another HCSO deputy transported the injured deputy to a nearby hospital. The deputy is expected to be OK. The others involved in the crash suffered non-life threatening injuriess, according to Hernando Sheriff PIO Denise Moloney.
