Police are currently in attendance outside Auckland Hospital.

An ambulance appears to have mounted a kerb and hit a bus stop.

The ambulance is not believed to have been driving under lights and sirens at the time.

At this stage it appears that three people waiting at that bus stop have status 3-4 injuries. These people are now being seen by medical staff at hospital.

Three ambulance officers (one of whom was the driver) are uninjured. A patient in the back is also uninjured.

The cause of the crash is not yet known. The driver will be spoken to through the course of the enquiry.
