KEY POINTS:
One person has been hurt after a stock truck rolled, spilling cattle onto State Highway 4 in the Waikato.
Police said the truck crashed about 1.30pm, just south of Tikitiki Road near Kopaki, about 22km south of Te Kuiti.
The driver of the truck was unhurt and no other cars were involved.
