A man has been flown to hospital in a serious condition after being trapped in his vehicle following a horror triple-truck crash on the Moonie Highway.
Police and paramedics rushed to the scene at Westmar, east of St George, just after 11am where a critically injured man was trapped at the legs following a crash between a B-double, a cattle truck, and a parked truck near Meandarra Talwood Rd.
A Queensland Ambulance spokeswoman said the man, aged in his 30s, was flown to Toowoomba Hospital in a serious condition with significant head injuries and a shoulder injury.
A man in his 60s was treated for neck pain and a man in his 40s for a small head laceration, but neither required transport to hospital.
The Moonie Highway remains closed in both directions.
