Men recovering after serious falls

By: Natasha Burling | Upper North Island News | Saturday August 25 2012 15:00

 

Two men have been treated in in Hawke's Bay after serious falls.

A 26-year-old was flown there by rescue helicopter just after 9am after falling from a tractor in the suburb of Elsthorpe.

He has serious head injuries.

St John Ambulance team manager Chris Matthews says he sent the helicopter crew straight out again to pick up a 45-year-old man who'd fallen from some steps in Omakere.

He is in a moderate condition and is thought to have spinal injuries.
