Two in hospital after car veers into house in north Brisbane

Résumé détaillé

Six fire crews helped free the driver from his vehicle and stabilise the two-storey home it crashed into.

A man and teenage boy have been taken to hospital after a three-car collision sent a vehicle into the ground floor of a northern Brisbane home.

Shortly before 11am on Saturday one of the drivers, an adult man, suffered a medical episode while travelling along Trouts Road, in Stafford Heights.

His vehicle, along with two other nearby cars, were involved in a crash, which sent the man’s car careening into a nearby two-storey house.

Firefighters arrived about 11.10am, finding the man stuck inside his car.

He was freed with the help of five fire crews, who also worked to stabilise the building, and suffered minor injuries from the crash.

Paramedics transported the man to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital in a stable condition.

A teenage boy was also treated at the scene for minor injuries, and taken to the Prince Charles Hospital.

Emergency services were still piecing together how the three vehicles had crashed, although police said all three cars were occupied.

Investigations had yet to determine which vehicles were moving, and if any had been parked at the time of the crash.
