One person has died and three others are injured after an all-terrain vehicle rolled in Central Otago.

Emergency services were called to a farm near Millers Flat about 10pm yesterday after the single-vehicle crash.

“Sadly, one person died at the scene. Three others were taken to hospital with minor-to-moderate injuries,” a police spokesperson said.

The person who died was an adult, a police spokesperson told the Herald.
