Man Suffers Head, Arm Injuries Pinned Under Motorbike

BY LAUREN FREEMANTLE

A man's been airlifted to the John Hunter Hospital after becoming pinned under his own motorcycle on a property north west of Singleton.

It's understood the man in his 60s was in the garage from about 10am working on his Harley Davidson, when the motorbike slipped off a stand and fell onto his body.

He was left pinned by his head, and wasn't discovered until 4:30 in the afternoon when his wife found him.

Four ambulances arrived, determining the man had suffered head injuries and a broken arm - the Hunter's Westpac Rescue Helicopter was tasked to the scene, airlifting the man to Newcastle where he remains in a stable condition.
