All lanes of I-93 were shut down while emergency crews dealt with the crash.

Emergency personnel found a male and a female who were in the vehicle located in the median. They were taken to Elliot Hospital in Manchester for serious injuries, but are expected to survive.

The occupants of the other two vehicles were all evaluated at the scene by emergency medical technicians and refused hospitalization.

The names of those involved in the crash have not been released.

State police said their preliminary investigation showed that a Toyota 4-Runner collided with the back end of a Honda Civic, causing the Honda to spin out of control. The Honda was then struck by a pickup truck and pushed off the highway. The 4-Runner continued to lose control and rolled over into the right breakdown lane. The pickup truck also lost control and rolled onto its side, blocking the middle lanes.

The highway remained closed for about an hour while debris and vehicles were cleared from the scene.

The cause of the crash is not yet known and remains under investigation by New Hampshire State Police, according to Windham fire officials.
