Eyewitness Philip Scott, who lives in Main Road, said he heard "the crunching of metal" and saw "five police vehicles" on his street.
"I spoke to one of the officers and understood it was a fully-planned training exercise, but clearly something went wrong.
"But there was a considerable amount of calm around."
A spokesman for the East Anglian Ambulance Service confirmed two people were taken by ambulance to the James Paget Hospital in Gorleston "for further assessment and care".
