LifeFlight airlifts injured motorcycle rider

The Mount Isa RACQ LifeFlight Rescue helicopter crew has airlifted a woman to hospital, after she fell twice from a motorcycle, in the Cloncurry region.

It’s believed the woman, who is aged in her 30s, was riding the vehicle at a private property when she came off the bike.

The woman, who was wearing a helmet, attempted to get back on the motorcycle before reportedly falling a second time, causing back and neck injuries.

The rescue chopper was called into action just before 11.30am (Tuesday, 4th April.)

The RACQ LifeFlight Rescue chopper pilot landed the aircraft near the scene, where the Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) Flight Paramedic met with local QAS paramedics to treat the patient.

She was flown to Mount Isa Hospital in a stable condition.
