A man has been airlifted to hospital following a crash at Hindmarsh Valley last night.

Just before midnight on Tuesday 15 March police and emergency services were called to Sawpit Road after reports of a Ford Utility rolling and hitting a tree.

The driver and sole occupant of the car, a 24-year-old man from Hindmarsh Valley, was treated at the scene before being airlifted to the Flinders Medical Centre where he remains in a critical condition.

Sawpit Road was closed for several hours but has since been re-opened.

Police are investigating the circumstances of the crash and ask anyone with any information to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
