    One person was killed and another seriously injured, after their vehicle was hit by an alleged fleeing driver south-east of Hamilton last night


    At around 8.40pm Police saw a black BMW speeding on Waipa's Arapuni Road, and turned on its red and blue lights to try and stop it.

    Police say it appears the offending car then collided with a second vehicle.

    The driver of the second vehicle was killed.

    Police have several investigations underway.

    They're seeking any witnesses or any footage of the events leading up to the crash.
