A car has plummeted metres off a road into the side of an Auckland house this afternoon.
The 4-wheel-drive came off the road at the intersection of East Coast Rd and Rosedale Rd - plunging down into the backyard of a Murrays Bay home, narrowly missing the kitchen window.
One person received moderate injuries in the crash.
It is understood the car was travelling down Rosedale Rd and went straight through the intersection with East Coast Rd about 2.30pm.
The vehicle is in an unstable position, with its nose pressing up against the wall of the brick house, and it has been secured with ropes tied to a power pole.
