Enquiries into the circumstances of a fatal crash in Levin yesterday afternoon are continuing.
Police yesterday issued a statement advising that the crash involved a truck and a mobility scooter.
This was based on early information from the scene, however we have now confirmed that the person who died was using a walking frame, not a mobility scooter.
A person who had stopped to provide assistance at the crash scene had been using a mobility scooter, but was not involved in the crash in any way.
Police apologise for any confusion caused.
