A police car hit a pedestrian while on the way to an “urgent incident” in Hamilton.
An investigation has been launched after the incident, which happened on Wednesday about 3.15pm, near the intersection of Anzac Parade and Victoria St.
A witness says a boy was hit and was “definitely airborne” but able to get off the road after the impact.
The police car “left the station on Anzac Parade with lights and siren activated heading to an urgent incident, and the collision happened shortly afterward”, a police spokesperson said in a written statement.
