A 19-year-old Winton man sustained minor injuries when his
four-wheel-drive Isuzu Bighorn overturned on State Highway 1
yesterday afternoon.
Emergency services were called to the crash on State Highway
1, at Waiwera South, between Balclutha and Clinton, about
12.30pm.
Constable Craig Gordon and Senior Constable Blair Corlet
(obscured) are pictured examining the crashed vehicle.
Senior Constable Jane Whitmore, of Balclutha, said it was
travelling south on SH1 when the driver lost control on a
moderate right-hand bend and the vehicle rolled twice, coming
to rest against a fence on the side of the road. No other
vehicles were involved.
The driver, the sole occupant, received minor injuries and
was taken to Clutha Health First, in Balclutha, for
treatment.
