The LifeFlight helicopter was tasked by Retrieval Services Queensland at 2.23pm and landed on a private property.

The critical care LifeFlight doctor and QAS flight paramedic worked with local QAS paramedics to treat the patient.

The patient, aged in his 40s, was airlifted to Toowoomba Hospital in a stable condition.
