Three people have been rushed to hospital after the car they were travelling in crashed into a CBD yoga studio on Sunday morning.

The alleged driver of the Mazda sedan, a 22-year-old man from Morphett Vale sustained minor injuries.

SA Ambulance confirmed the driver and two passengers have been taken to the Royal Adelaide Hospital for the treatment of various injuries including lacerations to the head.

The Advertiser understands there is damage to the front windscreen of the car, which could indicate seatbelts were not worn.

There are also conflicting reports on whether or not a passenger fled from the scene.

SAPOL will be making inquires and requesting CCTV footage from nearby businesses.

The owner of Path to Heart Studio Jin Jin told The Advertiser she was shocked by the news.

“I had a customer message me this morning and that’s how I found out about the accident,” she said.

“I was feeling very scared because I thought the car did my studio damage because it looked like a very big accident … but the police officer said we don’t need to concern ourselves too much.”

“He said the wall is not damaged too much and they did not affect any of the main buildings or structure.”

The crime scene investigation team was at the scene to conduct an initial report and plan to be looking into the matter further.

South Terrace road has now reopened.
