The road at the crash site is closed, and police are diverting traffic through the Lišeň district. A breathalyzer test for the driver of one of the cars came back negative, while the second driver could not be tested on the spot due to injuries sustained in the crash.

According to Michaela Botová, spokeswoman for the Emergency Medical Service, paramedics transported at least four injured people from the scene. Two adults were taken to the Brno University Hospital after receiving initial treatment, with their injuries assessed as moderate. The two children were taken to a children's hospital with minor to moderate injuries.
