Crews responded to a head-on collision in northwest Oklahoma City, Friday morning.

According to police, one vehicle was traveling north in the southbound lanes of OK-74 around 2:00 a.m. Police said an officer came in contact with the same car before the crash. The officer was forced to swerve because the driver was traveling in the wrong direction with no headlights on.  

Police said emergency crews extricated a female driver from her vehicle. The driver was transported to the hospital with minor injuries. The other car involved had five passengers inside. One passenger is said to have suffered a head injury, but was not transported to the hospital.
