                                Police investigate after a vehicle crashed into the Liberty Dialysis Hawaii facility on Harding Avenue in Kaimuki today.

At least three people were injured Friday evening when an SUV crashed into the Liberty Dialysis center at the corner of Harding and Koko Head avenues in Kaimuki.

First responders were called to the scene at around 5 p.m. Honolulu Emergency Medical Services reported that a 51-year-old man was in critical condition after the incident, and two men in their 70s, one of whom was the vehicle’s driver, were in serious condition.

Three other people were evaluated at the scene but refused transport, EMS said.

The vehicle crashed through a glass wall and into a lobby area with chairs and TVs. The wall and a door on the opposite side of the room also appeared to be damaged.

The SUV and a sedan parked in the Liberty Dialysis parking lot that also was damaged were towed away.
