A young woman has been airlifted by the Bundaberg-based RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter after she was involved in a water-skiing accident on New Year’s Day.
The high school-aged girl was reportedly water-skiing at a popular North Burnett dam when the incident occurred and she fell into the water.
The teenager suffered suspected neck injuries as a result of the fall, and was treated by local Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) paramedics at the scene.
The RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter landed on scene shortly after 4pm.
The girl was flown to Bundaberg Hospital in a stable condition, under the care of the LifeFlight Critical Care Doctor and QAS Flight Paramedic.
