A person has been left in critical condition after a person crashed their stolen bike in an attempted getaway in One Tree Hill, Auckland.
Police first saw the motorbike and driver on Campbell Rd shortly after 2pm, and after establishing the bike was stolen they signalled for the rider to pull over.
Police did not chase the bike, however, they caught up to them when they responded to a crash on Rawhiti Rd.
A member of the public called in to report the bike had crashed into a parked car. The motorcycle thief was left in critical condition.
