September 4, 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n

Police are seeking public help to identify a truck involved in a traffic incident north of Nanango on Friday evening which has left a NSW man seriously injured.<\/p>\n

Preliminary information suggests about 6:15pm a Chrysler sedan travelling northbound on the Burnett Highway was hit by a metal object which fell from a truck heading southbound.<\/p>\n

The incident occurred about 26km north of Nanango.<\/p>\n

The object went through the car windscreen and struck the 48-year-old male driver in the head, causing a serious injury.<\/p>\n

The 46-year-old male passenger of the car drove the injured man to Goomeri to seek help.<\/p>\n

The injured man was taken by ambulance to Murgon and then Kingaroy Hospital before being airlifted to Brisbane in a stable condition.<\/p>\n

Police are appealing for information from anyone who may have seen the crash occur, or the driver of a flatbed truck with a New Holland round baler and hay raker on the back which travelled through the area at the time.<\/p>\n

It is possible the driver may not know they were involved in an incident.<\/p>\n

The Forensic Crash Unit is investigating.<\/p>\n

Anyone with information should contact Policelink on 13-14-44 or Crime Stoppers anonymously on 1800-333-000.<\/p>\n
