A teenager remains in a critical condition in the John Hunter Hospital after a crash at Cessnock.

The 18-year-old was driving along Mount View Road just before 1.00pm yesterday when his car left the road and hit a tree.

He was trapped in the car for an hour before being freed – he was airlifted to hospital by the Hunter’s Westpac Rescue Helicopter suffering multiple injuries.
