Fairfield Township Police officers were responding to a call of an unconscious person and were traveling eastbound on Miliken Road toward Greatus Drive with their emergency lights and sirens activated.
As the police cruisers were traveling eastbound in the eastbound lane, multiple vehicles traveling westbound slowed and moved over to the right within their lane, according to police.
One of the vehicles that was slowing was a gray Acura RDX, operated by 85-year-old Logan Stone of Fairfield Township. His wife, 85-year-old Donna Stone, was in the front passenger seat.
A gray Lincoln Navigator, operated by 43-year-old Trent McFadden of Liberty Township, was also traveling westbound on Millikin Road, according to police.
The Lincoln struck the rear of the Acura and caused the Acura to spin and come to a final rest in a yard located on the north side of Millikin Road.

All three people were taken to UC West Chester Hospital for treatment.
