Three men have been taken to hospital, and a further two have escaped injury, after a sedan crashed and rolled in the front yard of a unit complex at Baulkham Hills this morning.
The crash happened after a 2014-model white Toyota Aurion, being driven north along Windsor Road, left the roadway near Rembrandt Drive about 2:40am (Saturday 17 April 2021).
