NSW Police earlier alleged the SUV was stolen, but now allege it was involved in the theft of another vehicle earlier on Wednesday in Middleton Grange.

Officers attempted to stop the vehicle along Waminda Ave in Campbelltown about 10.40am and initiated a pursuit when the driver allegedly failed to stop.

The pursuit was terminated a short time later along Moore Oxley Bypass, and a police operation involving PolAir continued to monitor the vehicle, police said.

The vehicle then allegedly ran a red light and collided with the ute vehicle before hitting a pole outside the hotel.

The 33-year-old man behind the wheel of the SUV was ejected from the vehicle in the crash.

He was treated by paramedics and taken to in a critical but stable condition Royal North Shore Hospital, where he remains under police guard.

Paramedics previously confirmed a man aged in his 30s sustained head and limb injuries.

The 49-year-old man behind the wheel of the ute suffered minor injuries and was taken to Liverpool Hospital as a precaution in a stable condition.

One person was trapped in a vehicle and required assistance from Fire and Rescue NSW.

“Fire and Rescue NSW has cut the side of a vehicle away to free one occupant from the wreckage,” Superintendent Adam Dewberry said.

“Another occupant is continuing to be treated by paramedics on the side of the road.

“Fire and Rescue NSW has put up a shade tent, just to give them some protection from the weather while they continue their treatment.“

The northbound lanes of the road were closed for some time, but have since reopened.

Police allege the SUV and its driver were involved in the theft of a Mercedes parked outside Thomas Hassall Anglican College on Kingsford Smith Ave at Middleton Grange about 8.30am on Wednesday.

A man gained entry into a car but was initially prevented from driving away by the 39-year-old woman who owns the car, police allege.

She was then dragged and pushed to the roadway before the thieves drove off in her car, police allege.

She suffered minor injuries and was taken to Liverpool Hospital for observation.

The allegedly stolen vehicle was later located along Richmond Cr about 9.45am and seized for forensic examination.

“An independent critical incident investigation has been launched into the operation and is being led by officers from the Cumberland Police Area Command and the Crash Investigation Unit,” police said.

“The incident is also subjected to an independent review from the Professional Standards Command and the Law Enforcement Conduct Commission.”
