    Truck ploughs into Porsche dealership

    Two people have been taken to hospital and traffic disrupted in the Auckland suburb of Newmarket after a truck ploughed into a Porsche dealership.


    Two people have been taken to hospital with injuries after a truck ploughed into a Porsche dealership in the Auckland suburb of Newmarket.

    Emergency services were called to the accident on Great South Road at about 11.30am.

    Two people were transported to hospital, one with serious injuries and the other with moderate injuries, a spokesman for St John Ambulance told NZ Newswire.

    The Fire Service said it freed one person from a vehicle.

    An eyewitness told NZherald.co.nz that a truck lost control after hitting a van doing a U-turn and smashed into another truck unloading a Porsche at the Newmarket dealership.

    The scene was described as being like a plane crash.
