A pair of Long Island teens were badly hurt when a car rammed into them as they were leaving school on Wednesday.

The female high school students, who are about 15-years-old, were standing near the intersection of Elmont Road and Dutch Broadway with two friends, as a crash involving four vehicles occurred, according to Nassau County Police.

One of the cars jumped off the road, hit a tree, then a pole and then rammed into the group on the sidewalk, Commissioner Patrick Ryder told reporters at the scene.

The car then turned over.

The girls are both in critical condition — and one of them had to be airlifted to the hospital.

The other two students, a boy and a girl who are also about 15, suffered non life-threatening injuries.

Police are still investigating how the crash happened, Ryder said.

It’s unclear if anyone in the vehicles involved in the crash was injured.
