Police say a person has died in an early morning crash on State Highway 6 near Queenstown.
Emergency services were called to the scene about 4.30am after a member of the public came across the scene, at the southern end of Lake Wakatipu, south of Kingston.

State Highway 6, the Kingston-Garston Highway, was closed for several hours following the single-vehicle crash.
The road has since reopened, operating to one lane.
