Around 8.48 am, emergency services were summoned to the scene of the mishap on Ashton Road after a nearby digger driver heard the collision.

“The woman had to be winched down from a height of about 200 feet (61 meters) to safety. She was transported in critical condition to Auckland City Hospital. A spokeswoman for St. John Ambulance said that one individual in a slight condition didn’t need to go to the hospital, while two others were taken to the hospital in moderate conditions. “A mum, two kids, and a father have taken a significant fall down a 50-75m vertical bank,” a police officer told to our sources. He said that the mother was the “main victim” and that emergency medical personnel and a Westpac aircraft were able to winch down a paramedic to get the family out.
We also had two children transferred to the Starship; at this time, the father is unharmed. Apparently, a slide that had formed around November and worsened after the “big cyclone” was being traversed by locals riding quad bikes, according to a neighbor. After that, the route was blocked off because it was too narrow, and travelers had to use quad bikes to pass.
According to Senior Sergeant Matthew Child, “It’s a really large, high fall our staff along with ambulance and fire have put themselves in a fair amount of danger to get down to the injured parties.” It’s too soon to comment, according to Auckland Council, but its road safety teams will support the police inquiry. About 16 kilometers to the north of Warkworth is Whangateau. So this was all about this case. So, Stay tuned to PKB news.
