WATCH: Man, 21, flown to hospital after serious crash
A 21-YEAR-OLD man was flown to the Toowoomba Hospital with a fractured leg after he crashed his dirt bike into a tree at a private motocross park at Cooyar yesterday.
A Queensland Ambulance Service spokeswoman said the crash occurred at about 1pm.
The Toowoomba-based RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter was called to airlifted the rider
Once at the scene, the LifeFlight critical care doctor and QAS flight paramedic, worked alongside the local QAS crew to treat the male rider for lower limb injuries.
Due to the terrain, it took a combination of rescuers and bystanders to help carry the stretcher with the patient to a buggy, where he then was driven to the rescue helicopter.
Once stabilised, the male in his twenties was airlifted to the Toowoomba Hospital in a stable condition.
