A solo car crash involving the center divider on the Golden State (5)) Freeway in Sylmar left four people — including three children — seriously injured.

The crash happened on the northbound 5 Freeway just south of the Antelope Valley (14) Freeway around 7:50 p.m. Sunday, according to Los Angeles Fire Department spokesman Brian Humphrey.

According to Humphrey, a minivan driver apparently lost control and the vehicle hit the center divider.

A person was temporarily trapped in the minivan wreckage. It wasn’t immediately known whether that person was the adult or one of the children.

Traffic was expected to back up near the accident site and Humphrey warned motorists to find another route.
