A devastating six-vehicle crash in the Pinjarra Hills area of Brisbane has left several victims critically injured and fighting for their lives. Emergency crews were called to the chaotic scene on Moggill Road shortly before 9:40 p.m. on Monday night, following reports of a major multi-vehicle collision.
The force of the crash left several people trapped inside the twisted wreckage, requiring extensive efforts by first responders to safely extract them. Queensland Ambulance Service confirmed that a man and woman, both in their 60s, sustained life-threatening injuries in the incident. They suffered severe chest and abdominal trauma and were rushed under priority conditions to the Royal Brisbane and Women’s Hospital, where they remain in a critical state.
Multiple ambulance units, along with police and fire services, responded swiftly to the scene, providing urgent treatment to the injured and assisting with rescue operations. The extent of injuries to others involved has not been fully confirmed, but authorities have indicated that several victims required immediate medical attention.
Police have since launched an investigation to determine the cause of the accident. Moggill Road, a busy traffic corridor in the area, was closed for several hours overnight as forensic crash investigators examined the scene and crews worked to clear the mangled vehicles and debris.
Residents in the Pinjarra Hills community have expressed shock at the scale of the crash, with many describing it as one of the most serious incidents they have seen in the area in recent times.
Authorities are urging anyone who may have witnessed the crash or who has dashcam footage from the area at the time of the incident to come forward as investigations continue.
