The Bundaberg RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter crew has airlifted a man to hospital, after he fell off a horse, in the North Burnett region.
The rescue chopper was tasked into action around 8.30am this morning.
It’s believed the rider, aged in his 40s, was riding a horse at speed on a rural property, northeast of Monto, when he came off his mount.
He was rendered unconscious.
The pilot was able to land the aircraft near the scene, where the RACQ LifeFlight Rescue Critical Care Doctor and Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) Flight Paramedic assisted local QAS paramedics.
The man was treated for head injuries, before being flown to Bundaberg Hospital is a serious but stable condition.
