Coffs Harbour servo worker rushed to hospital after run over by ute

A service station worker has been rushed to hospital after he was allegedly run over by a woman on the NSW Mid North Coast as he was checking the levels of a fuel tank on Tuesday night.

The 36-year-old man was “critically injured” about 7pm on Tuesday when he became “trapped under a ute” on the forecourt of a Coffs Harbour service station.

SES and NSW Fire and Rescue crews worked to free the man before he was handed over to NSW Ambulance paramedics and taken to Coffs Harbour Hospital in a critical condition.

The 44-year-old woman who was allegedly behind the wheel of the ute during the incident was charged with negligent driving causing grievous bodily harm and breaching bail.

She was refused bail and will appear in Bail Division court on Wednesday.
