Man killed after car slammed into rock, tree

A man’s body has been found after a passing motorist came across the wreckage of a crash in the South Burnett region early on Monday.

Police are seeking information after a single-vehicle crash claimed the life of a man in the South Burnett region early on Monday.

Police say the man was driving on the D’Aguilar Highway around six kilometres north of Yarraman, near South Nanango, when the crash occurred.

Investigations so far show the man’s black Ford Falcon sedan went off the road and hit a large rock, before it was thrown into a tree.

They are not sure what time the incident happened this morning as a passing truck driver came across the wreckage at around 5.30am.

Police believe the crash happened several hours earlier.

The Forensic Crash Unit is investigating the crash and urges anyone who passed through the area with dashcam or has information to contact police.
