Man injured in Western Downs quad bike rollover

The Toowoomba-based RACQ LifeFlight Rescue has airlifted a man who was injured in a quad bike rollover in the Western Downs region.

The rescue chopper crew was called to assist at a private property just after 6.30pm last night (Saturday, December 3).

It’s believed the man, who is aged in his 40s, had been riding the quad bike on his property when the crash occurred.

Once on scene, the aeromedical crew met with local Queensland Fire and Emergency (QFES) officers and Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) paramedics to treat the man for suspected head injuries.

He was then flown to Princess Alexandra Hospital for further treatment.
