    A stolen truck carrying a digger has crashed into a police car at Kaingaroa

    A stolen truck carrying a digger has crashed into a police car at Kaingaroa, south east of Rotorua


    A police spokeswoman says they laid road spikes on State Highway 38 around 7 am after receiving reports the truck had been seen in the area.

    It was believed to be travelling from Rotorua and towing the digger on a trailer.

    The truck left the road before reaching the road spikes, crashing into a police car.

    The truck driver received moderate leg injuries and was taken to hospital by ambulance.

    Police say will be speaking with him.
