Police say a man has died following a crash in Murwillumbah overnight.
Emergency services were called to Ewing Street, just after 8pm (Monday June 23), after reports a car had crashed into a guard rail and then into the front porch of a house.
Officers from Tweed/Byron Police District attended along with NSW Ambulance paramedics who commenced CPR; however, the 59-year-old driver – and sole-occupant – was unable to be revived.
No one else was injured and there was minor damage to the house.
A report will be prepared for the Coroner.
