A 20-year-old man from Korolevu Village in Navosa is admitted in critical condition at the Lautoka Aspen Hospital after falling off a moving vehicle on Tuesday night.
Police say the man was travelling in the tray of a carrier with two others when the driver suddenly changed speed, causing all three to be thrown out of the vehicle.
The driver was alerted by an 18-year-old farmer who was also seated in the tray.
He rushed the victims to the Bukuya Health Centre, where two were later transferred to Nadi Hospital, treated for minor injuries, and discharged.
The 20-year-old was transferred to Lautoka Hospital, where he remains under critical care.
Police investigations into the incident are underway.
