Woman dies in horror boat accident
A 21-year-old woman has died and three people have been injured after a small dinghy crashed into a private jetty on the Brisbane River on Wednesday.
Emergency crews, including several paramedic crews, were called to Chelmer at 4.40pm, however the woman died at the scene.
Two men and a child were taken to hospital with varying degrees of injuries, however all are in a stable condition.
Queensland Ambulance Services senior operation supervisor David Ward said while police were continuing to investigate the accident, it appeared as though the aluminium dinghy had run aground.
"We have suspicions that that might have occurred," he said.
Mr Ward thanked "people in the area" for their assistance in helping crews access patients.
Queensland Police continue to investigate.
