On Saturday 18 July, at around 11.00am the Mounties Care CareFlight Helicopter was tasked by NSW Ambulance to Putty Road, Colo Heights, where a car had struck a tree after leaving the road.
CareFlight’s specialist doctor and NSW Ambulance paramedics treated a young boy for chest and limb injuries.
The boy was airlifted to the Children’s Hospital at Westmead in a serious but stable condition.
Two adults and two other children were also treated for injuries suffered in the crash and transported by road ambulance to Westmead Hospital and the Children’s Hospital at Westmead.
