Two men have suffered serious injuries after a car ploughed through a fence and an e-scooter rider crashed in separate accidents on the Fraser Coast overnight.

Emergency services first attended the scene of a single-vehicle rollover in Maryborough at 9:50pm Friday.

The car had smashed through a fence outside a home on the corner of Walker and Stevenson Streets.

According to the Queensland Ambulance Service, a man in his 20s crawled from the wreckage before being treated for serious arm, facial and significant chest injuries.

He was taken to Hervey Bay Hospital in a serious condition.

It was a busy night for emergency services, who were then called to an e-scooter crash in Maryborough at 10:47pm.

Paramedics treated a man in his 40s who had “significant head and chest injuries” after a crash on Smith Street.

He was also taken to Hervey Bay Hospital where he remained on Saturday in a serious but stable condition.

More to come.
