A driver has been seriously injured in a single-vehicle crash in Twizel early today.
Emergency services responded to the crash on Mackenzie Drive about 2.45am.
A Fire and Emergency New Zealand spokeswoman said a car had “come off the road and into a section and ended up against the side of a house”.
No one was trapped, but she said there were thought to be injuries and a rescue helicopter had been called to the scene.
Police said in a statement initial reports were that there were serious injuries.
The Serious Crash Unit has been advised and an inquiry is under way.
The couple spend five months a year in America running their business.
