    Two people have died so far on the roads this Easter

    Two people have died so far on the roads this Easter


    Nine people died during the entire holiday period last year.

    A passenger in a fleeing vehicle lost their life on Thursday night in Takanini, in South Auckland, when the car they were in hit a pole.

    One person died and another was critically injured in a crash at Jacks Point, near Queenstown, yesterday evening.

    The accident involved a sedan and a ute and the roof of one vehicle was sliced off.

    Earlier, a third person was seriously hurt near Glenorchy when their vehicle was trapped between a rolling truck and a shed.
