PASSENGERS PINNED UNDERNEATH Dominion Special Service. Auckland, February 20. A seven-seater car, owned by Mr. Cosgrave, of Oriri, capsized at Clevedon last night. The car had six passengers on board aud was returning from Auckland. Owing to loose gravel on the road, the car apparently skidded and hit a telegraph post. It afterwards travelled about 100 yards and capsized over a bank. Two of the passengers were thrown clear and the other four were pinned under the car, which had to be lifted before they could be released. Nobody was seriously hurt, but all were badly shaken and bruised. The car was badly smashed.
