Police are investigating after a person was hit by a car and left unconscious in a pool of blood in the Hobson St on-ramp in Auckland’s CBD late last night.
Police said about 9.35pm, emergency services responded to reports of a pedestrian hit by a car in Union St.
Police cordoned off the on-ramp to the Northwestern Motorway as they attended the scene.
A photographer at the scene said Hato Hone St John had transported one person to hospital in a serious condition.
An Auckland Hospital spokesperson said the patient was in a stable condition this morning.
The Serious Crash Unit and a police photographer were also in attendance, and police confirmed they were speaking with the driver.
A witness told the Herald a person was lying on the ground in a pool of blood who had clearly been hit by a vehicle and was unconscious.
“The person was lying in the middle of the on-ramp while paramedics attended the scene, with the passengers of the other vehicles standing nearby crying and screaming,” they said.
