Taralune Rag, Sunday

One person dead, two seriously injured in car accident

One male was killed and two males seriously injured when their Ford Falcon ute struck a tree near Taralune.

“Given the state of the vehicle, the impact was significant,” said Sgt. Graham Cole. “Extraordinarily, the driver was coherent when help arrived. The deceased was found under the tarp. It’s obvious speed and stupidity was, and continues to be, a factor.”

Retired local paramedic Vince Reid was first on the scene.

The injured were airlifted to Brisbane. Names have been withheld until all family members are notified.

Tributes flow on social media as Taralune residents try to come to terms with the devastation.

The accident remains under investigation.
