Four-car collision

By Bridget Cook
AN air ambulance was required at the scene of a four-car collision in Lyndhurst on Thursday morning.
Paramedics from Seaford and Berwick, and an ambulance manager were sent to the collision on Thompson Road, just after 6.30am last Thursday 28 April.
Ambulance group manager Alan Bosch said paramedics arrived to find four cars involved in the collision.
“It appears two of those cars had collided head-on, and one was extensively damaged,” she said.
Ms Bosch said a 32-year-old man was trapped in that car for more than half an hour.
“It was very hard to assess his injuries because of all of the wreckage around his legs,” she said. “An off-duty paramedic stopped to treat him before the advanced life support paramedics and intensive care paramedics arrived. He has leg factures and possibly a fractured pelvis.
“Paramedics stabilised his condition with fluid through a drip and gave him some pain relief.”
The man was flown to Royal Melbourne Hospital in a stable condition.
