The Brisbane-based RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter crew has airlifted a woman to hospital, after she was critically injured in a single-vehicle rollover, in the Lockyer Valley.
It’s believed the woman, who is aged in her thirties, was travelling in a four-wheel drive.
The rescue chopper had just completed an inter-hospital transfer, when it was tasked to attend the scene of the incident, west of Brisbane, shortly before 2:30pm (Sun 13th Nov).
The pilot landed the helicopter in a nearby paddock near the crash scene.
The aeromedical crew met with local Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) paramedics to treat the patient for multiple traumatic injuries.
Queensland Police Service (QPS) officers and Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES) personnel were also in attendance.
Once stablised, the patient was loaded into the rescue chopper and flown to the Royal Brisbane Hospital in a critical condition.
A second patient was transported by QAS.
