A 5-year-old boy is recovering in the John Hunter Hospital following a horrific crash east of Scone which claimed the lives of three men including his father and grandfather.
Their four-wheel drive was discovered yesterday afternoon at a property off Waverley Road Timor near Gundy.
A neighbouring landowner found the vehicle at about 5.00pm -it appeared to have rolled down an embankment earlier in the day.
All occupants were ejected from the four-wheel drive - the three men were found dead at the scene and the 5-year-old boy was found nearby suffering a broken arm and other injuries.
He was flown to the John Hunter Hospital by the region's Westpac Rescue Helicopter in a stable condition.
Investigations are continuing and a report is being prepared for the Coroner.
