One person has been taken to hospital following the crash of a vehicle into a house in Gate Pa.

Police were notified that a vehicle crashed into a house on Murray Street, Gate Pa at about 6.40am.

The silver Nissan Primera has smashed "through the lounge window/door of a house on the corner of Cook and Murray Street" says a SunLive reader.

A neighbour who rushed to the scene with her husband called emergency services.

"The car had gone into the lounge but the occupants are all okay." says the neighbour. "It was pretty scary."

It is understood that two children and an adult inside the unit were not in the lounge when the car crashed through the wall.

The neighbours say the airbag in the car successfully deployed, although the driver had minor injuries.

"She was on her way to work when it happened."

"One person was taken to hospital with minor/moderate injuries," says a police spokesperson.

"There were no road blockages."
