Qld: Toowoomba teenager dies, taking state road toll to six

Queensland's Christmas holiday road toll rose to six today with the death of a 19-year-old
Toowoomba woman in an accident in the state's south-west.

Constable SEBASTIAN POLLOCK of Mitchell police says the woman died when the van she
was in flipped several times, about five kilometres west of Mitchell.

A 37-year-old woman and her four-year-old son were airlifted to Brisbane in critical conditions.

The 38-year-old male driver, 17-month-old twins and their seven-year-old brother were uninjured.

The van had been travelling along the Warrego Highway towards Toowoomba when the accident
happened at about 8.20am (AEST).
