NSW Police are appealing for information after a man was found critically injured last night near Teven.
Emergency services were called to Eltham Road, Teven, at about 9.30pm yesterday, Saturday, 19 August, and found the 43-year-old man suffering multiple injuries.
He was treated at the scene by NSW Ambulance paramedics before being airlifted to Gold Coast Hospital, where he’s reported to be in a critical condition.
Detectives from Richmond Police District are now investigating the circumstances surrounding how the man came to be injured.
Police have been told the man and a woman, aged 25, are believed to have been at the Eltham Hotel about 4pm yesterday; emergency services were called to treat the injured man about five hours later. That woman is assisting police with inquiries.
Detectives are asking anyone with information – or dashcam vision – they believe could assist investigators to contact Ballina Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
