A 30-year-old man was critically injured this morning when his car crashed into an electricity pole in Attard, a few metres away from a speed camera in Notary Zarb Street.

The accident happened at around 5.15 a.m. The front part of the Toyota car was extensively damaged, with debris scattered over a wide area, and the pole was dislodged.

The injured driver was immediately assisted by a policeman who happened to be driving by. The policeman also called the ambulance.

Magistrate Audrey Demicoli is holding an inquiry.
