While we might of been enjoying time with our family and friends over the weekend, our emergency services were kept busy, being called to a number of serious incidents across the region.
Early on Sunday Morning, State Emergency Service crews were called to a home in Thornton, where a car had collided with the front of it. Thankfully there are no reports of any injuries.
Over in Paterson, the Westpac Rescue Helicopter responded to a two-car crash on Woodville Road at around 10am on Sunday, where a woman in her 80s suffered serious injuries and was airlifted to the John Hunter Hosptial in a serious condition.
Meantime, an elderly man at Copacabana on the Central Coast was also airlifted to the John Hunter Hospital, late on Sunday evening, after falling onto a glass vase, suffering serious chest lacerations. He was taken to hospital in a stable condition.
