Emergency services are at the scene of a crash that’s left a car upside down in a stream in rural Wellington.
Police, Fire and Emergency and Wellington Free Ambulance were called to the crash in Mākara just after 8am.
Fire and Emergency shift manager Alex Norris said crews arrived to find a car partially submerged in the stream on Mākara Beach Road – a narrow, winding road between Karori and Mākara Beach.
He said one truck was still at the scene but police were handling the response.
Wellington Free Ambulance also responded, but it has referred inquiries to police due to the nature of the incident.
The police could not yet say if people were injured.
Mākara Village cattery owner Cody Stephens said he saw police cars and a fire engine fly past his property this morning, heading towards the beach.
