Two pedestrians hurt in Sydney crash

Two pedestrians have been struck in an inner-city Sydney car crash that led to a drug bust.

Police said a 55-year-old man tried to flee the scene after crashing his car into a stationary truck and two pedestrians in Alexandria on Friday afternoon, but was quickly caught by a number of witnesses and was later found to have heroin on him.

The pedestrians, a 30-year-old man with minor injuries and a 25-year-old man with leg fractures, were taken to hospital.
