A motorist is in critical condition after a car crash in the northern suburbs of Hamilton.
The crash happened shortly after 1pm when a car hit a tree opposite the Horsham Downs Golf Club on River Rd, north of the city.
Police said one person suffered critical injuries in the crash and River Rd was currently closed.
