A man who was hit by a car on Fenton St in Rotorua last night has died from his injuries.
Police have confirmed the man was a pedestrian and was hit near the Mobil service station about 6.40pm.
The man was transported to Rotorua Hospital in a moderate condition but
his condition deteriorated to critical later that night and he died in the early hours of this morning.
A nearby worker said he heard the sound of screeching tyres and someone screaming around the time of the incident.
He said he initially didn't think much of it because he thought it was "normal Fenton St antics".
