A man has died in hospital three days after a crash at Stanmore, between Beerwah and Woodford.

Emergency services were called to Bellthorpe Range Road about 1.15pm on Sunday, February 9, following reports a vehicle had struck a tree.

Upon arrival, police located a Toyota HiLux utility with a single occupant in the driver seat, receiving treatment by other emergency services.

The driver of the Toyota, a 66-year-old Bellthorpe man, was airlifted from the scene to the Princess Alexandra Hospital with life-threatening injuries.
