ELDERLY COUPLE CRITICALLY INJURED AFTER CAR CRASH

UPDATE: The couple’s condition is now serious but stable.

An elderly man and woman are in hospital with critical injuries following a single-vehicle crash in the Hunter last night.

About 10.30pm on October 11 October, emergency services were called to Wine Country Drive at North Rothbury, where a Toyota Corolla left the road and rolled.

The male driver and female passenger – both aged 94 – were found trapped inside the car – but were freed a short time later.

The pair were taken to John Hunter Hospital, both in a critical condition.

Police, including the Crash Investigation Unit, set up a crime scene and started an investigation into the incident.

As inquires continue, anyone with information is being urged to come forward.
