Five people were injured after a four-car crash in Hastings.

Emergency services were called to the nose to tail crash at the intersection of Heretaunga St W and Maraekakaho Rd in Frimley, Hastings, about 2.57pm on Friday.

Police said initial reports suggest four cars were involved and Maraekakaho Rd was blocked to traffic.

A St John Ambulance spokeswoman said five people suffered moderate to minor injuries.

One person with moderate injuries and a person with minor injuries were transported to Hawke's Bay Hospital.
