Story summary

A 73-year-old woman died and two others were seriously injured, including an 11-year-old boy, in a crash involving a car and a truck on the Cunningham Highway near Aratula, southwest of Brisbane, Queensland, on Sunday at around 11:30am. The woman was driving a white Toyota Hilux towing a boat, which collided with a red Kenworth prime mover. The boy was transported to the Queensland Children's Hospital with significant abdominal injuries, while the man in his 20s, who was also a passenger in the Hilux, was airlifted to Princess Alexandra Hospital with severe injuries. The highway remains closed in both directions near the crash site, causing significant delays. Queensland Police are investigating the cause of the crash and have appealed for witnesses to come forward.
