A car rolled into an Auckland supermarket after a serious crash in Mt Eden critically injured one person this morning.

A person at a local business told the Herald they heard a very loud crash and saw a black car rolling down the road.

Other cars were beeping at it before it hit the Farro gourmet food store on Dominion Rd.

The witness said the black car struck a silver car before rolling back down the road.

They told the Herald no pedestrians were hit.

Police said emergency services were called to the single-vehicle crash on Dominion Rd about 10.18am.

“One patient was ...transported to Auckland City Hospital in a critical condition,” a St John spokesperson said.

Dominion Rd is closed between Milton Rd and Elizabeth St. Diversions are in place and police advise motorists to expect delays.

The Serious Crash Unit has also been notified, said police.
