Police seek bloodied car crash survivors

Taranaki police are still trying to solve the mystery of a crashed and bloodied car minus its occupants.

The blue Toyota sedan was abandoned after a crash at a section of roadworks on Hawera's Fairfield Rd on Sunday night.

Sergeant Kim Severinsen told the Taranaki Daily News the car had been stolen from the town and was heading north along Fairfield Rd when it crashed between 9pm and 9.30pm.

There was a lot of blood found inside the car and around the scene so the occupants had probably been injured, he said.

He urged the public to contact police if they knew of anyone who had arrived home injured or wet and with bloodied clothing.
