Local police as well as police specializing in counter-terrorism are investigating the explosion, which took place outside Liverpool Women's Hospital in northwest England Sunday.
Authorities are keeping "an open mind as to what caused the explosion," an earlier police statement said.
"So far we understand that the car involved was a taxi which pulled up at the hospital shortly before the explosion occurred," according to the statement.
The injured person is being treated in hospital and has not suffered life-threatening injuries, police said. The incident occurred at about 11 a.m. local time (6 a.m. ET).
Members of the public are urged to remain calm but vigilant, the police statement added. Visiting access to the hospital has been restricted, according to a notice on the hospital's website.
