Officers responded to a seven car pileup Friday around 4:45 p.m. on El Camino Real at Cassia Road.

At least one child and four adults were injured, according to witnesses on scene. One person was transported by air ambulance to Scripps La Jolla for very serious injuries. 

The north bound and some south bound lanes on El Camino real were closed for about an hour while first responders cleared the roadway.
