LifeFlight airlifts boy after dirtbike crash

The Sunshine Coast LifeFlight aeromedical team airlifted a teenage boy to hospital this afternoon after a dirtbike incident.

The boy was attempting a jump on a private property in the Noosa region when he came off his bike and crashed to the ground.

Queensland Ambulance Service (QAS) paramedics arrived first on scene and treated the boy for a suspected injury to his left jaw and left lower leg.

The LifeFlight helicopter landed in a paddock near the accident scene.

The LifeFlight critical care doctor and QAS flight paramedic provided further treatment before the patient was transported to Sunshine Coast University Hospital in a stable condition.
