Police are appealing for witnesses following a single-vehicle crash in Richmond last night, NSW Police say.
Just before 8.40pm today, emergency services were called following reports a car had left the roadway on Castlereagh Road, travelled down a ditch, and hit a tree.
Police have been told the 23-year-old female driver swerved to avoid a kangaroo on the road.
She was uninjured and did not require treatment.
Her passenger, a 23-year-old man, suffered suspected broken legs and head injuries. He was airlifted to Westmead Hospital in a stable condition.
Officers attached to Hawkesbury Local Area Command attended and commenced an investigation.
As inquiries continue, police are urging any witnesses to come forward and contact Crime Stopers.
