LifeFlight airlifts man after vehicle rollover

The Mount Isa-based LifeFlight aeromedical crew today airlifted a man to hospital after a vehicle rollover.

The LifeFlight helicopter was tasked at 1.45pm by Retrieval Services Queensland to a highway northwest of Mount Isa after a vehicle towing a caravan rolled.

The Royal Flying Doctor Service (RFDS) doctor and Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) flight paramedic worked with local QAS paramedics to treat a man and woman for minor injuries.

Both patients, in their 60s, were taken to Mount Isa Hospital with the female road transported and the male airlifted.
