A baby has been taken to Rotorua Hospital following a crash on Maniatutu Rd in Okere Falls.

Police and ambulance staff went to the crash about 4pm this afternoon after reports of a car that had rolled.

Rotorua Daily Post photographer Stephen Parker said the car was on its side on the side of the road.

After the driver and baby was freed from the car, a tractor was used to push the car onto its wheels.

A Northern Police Communications Centre spokesperson said no one else was injured.
