LifeFlight airlifts woman trampled by bull

The Brisbane-based LifeFlight aeromedical crew today airlifted a woman following an animal incident.

The helicopter was tasked by Retrieval Services Queensland at 3:50pm and landed at a property in the Lockyer Valley region.

It is believed a woman in her 40s was injured when she was charged and trampled by a bull.

The critical care LifeFlight doctor and flight nurse worked with local Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) paramedics to treat the patient for facial and upper body injuries.

She was airlifted to Princess Alexandra Hospital in a stable condition.
