The driver and occupants of a car which crashed into a building in Whangarei on Saturday are being sought by police.
The car, a 2001 grey/silver Subaru Legacy, was driving south on State Highway 1 when it came off the road and crashed into the weigh bridge building near Uretiti just after midnight.
All the occupants of the car fled the scene.
A police dog was used in an attempt to track the fleeing driver and passengers, but could not find them, police said.
Anyone with information, including anyone who picked up hitchhikers on SH1 after midnight on Saturday, is asked to contact Detective Sergeant Dave Wilkinson at the Whangarei Police Station on 09 430 4500.
