Pair die in crash
08:45 AEDT Tue Dec 21 2004
A young P-plate driver and his female passenger died in a crash which split their sports car into several pieces in south-western Sydney on Monday night.
Shortly after 11pm, their Nissan Skyline clipped the front of a four-wheel drive at the intersection of Milperra Road and Marigold Street, Milperra, before hitting a power pole.
The 21-year-old driver, from Chester Hill, and his 20-year-old passenger, from Villawood, died at the scene, police said. The other passenger, a 32-year-old man, remains in a critical condition with head injuries in Liverpool Hospital.
The impact of the crash scattered debris over an extensive area. Police are appealing for the occupants of a silver car driving alongside the Skyline shortly before the crash to come forward.
Crash investigators remained at the scene until early on Tuesday morning.
Anyone with information about the crash is urged to contact the Metropolitan Crash Investigation Unit at Liverpool on 9821 8550 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000
