RACQ LifeFlight Rescue airlifts driver to hospital after crash

Bundaberg’s RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter crew has airlifted a man to hospital, after he was injured in a single vehicle crash in the North Burnett region, in the early hours of this morning.

It’s believed the driver, who is aged in his 40s, was the only occupant of the car.

The rescue helicopter was tasked to the scene just before 2am.

The RACQ LifeFlight Rescue pilot was able to land near the scene, on the road, which had been closed by local Queensland Police Service (QPS) officers.

The aeromedical crew worked with local Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) paramedics and Queensland Fire and Emergency Service (QFES) personnel to treat the patient for leg injuries.

He was loaded into the aircraft and flown to Bundaberg Hospital in a stable condition.
