A young woman is in Hawke's Bay Hospital after a single car crash in Hastings in the early hours of Thursday morning.
A police spokesperson said the car hit a power pole on Tomoana Rd about 3.42am and "might have hit a parked car and a fence" but she said the information was "not clear".
Power was out for some time. A St John Ambulance spokeswoman said one person was reported to have serious injuries after the crash while another was reported to have moderate injuries.
A Hawke's Bay hospital spokesperson confirmed the young woman was in the intensive care unit in a stable condition on Friday.
Police said one person had been arrested on an "unrelated matter" after the crash and investigations into it were ongoing.
