A driver has died after crashing into a house at St Leonards, according to police.
Officers and emergency services are “currently on scene”, Victoria Police said in a statement issued shortly after 4pm today.
“It is believed a car travelling along McLeod St has collided into a house at 3.05pm,” the statement said.
“The driver, who is yet to be identified, died at the scene.
“The cause of the collision is not known and the investigation is ongoing.
