RACQ LifeFlight Rescue airlifts woman run over by a tractor

The Sunshine Coast-based RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter has airlifted a woman to hospital, after she was run over by a tractor.

It’s believed the woman was helping with work at a campground, when she was injured.

The rescue helicopter flew to the scene, north of Gympie, at around 11 o’clock this morning.

The pilot landed the aircraft at the campground, where Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) paramedics were already treating the patient.

The woman, aged in her 30s, was flown to Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a stable condition, with pelvic injuries.
