    Investigation's begun at the site of a fiery crash near Canterbury's Kirwee this morning


    One person's in a critical condition after a milk tanker and ute collided, on West Coast Road, State Highway 73, about 8am.

    The truck's cab was engulfed in flames.

    The road is closed between Ansons and Miles Rroads.

    Herald reporter Jazyln Whales says it's a very confronting scene as the front of the ute is completely crushed.
