One person remains in a critical condition after a serious crash in Waipu on Wednesday injured seven people.
The two-car crash on Cove Rd closed the road – an alternative route to the Brynderwyns – and saw a massive emergency response.
It was the first time since the 2019 White Island eruption rescue that multiple rescue helicopters were needed in an emergency.
Now, police are seeking help from the public, including anyone who may have seen the vehicles or have video footage of the cars involved.
Detective Sergeant Steve Chamberlain said seven people were injured in the crash and four of them were children.
