Man trapped in rollover

A 27-year-old man had to be cut from his vehicle following a rollover near Kununurra Airport last Thursday.

Roderick Johnson is now in hospital in Perth while doctors decide whether they will be able to save one of his arms.

Snr Const. Ron Dodson said police received a call about 4.30am and attended the accident along with Fire Brigade officers.

The car had to be cut with the 'jaws of life' and lifted to free Johnson, who was then taken to Kununurra Hospital before being flown out.

Police are investigating a theory that the vehicle went out of control after a right-hand rear tyre blew out.
