A member of the Australian Brumbies Super 14 team is in a critical condition in a Durban hospital after being knocked down in Umgeni Road in Morningside early this morning.

ER24’s Derrick Banks says the 26-year-old victim’s name is being withheld at this stage. The rugby player and his team mates were leaving a night club just after four this morning when he was hit by a driver, who drove away, but returned to the scene 10 minutes later.

The police were on the scene but it is not yet known whether the motorist has been arrested. The police will be investigating the accident.
