A lamp post landed on a van after being hit during a serious two-vehicle crash in Napier.
One person was taken to hospital in a critical condition following the accident in rush-hour traffic on Taradale Rd about 8.05am yesterday, which saw a car roll and crash into another vehicle. A lamp post was downed in the incident.
One person in a critical condition was transported to Hawke’s Bay Hospital, a St John ambulance spokesman said. Another person was treated for minor injuries.
Police later confirmed a 31-year-old man was arrested and charged with unlawful taking of a vehicle and reckless driving.
