Police are re-appealing for information as an investigation into a break and enter and crash at Boggabilla earlier this year continues.
About 6.45am on Friday 21 February 2025, officers attached to New England Police District were called to a home on Yeoman Street, Boggabilla, after reports of a break and enter.
Police were told two unknown men arrived at the home on a red Honda trailbike – believed to be stolen – before forcing entry into the home.
Shortly after, an occupant of the home and another man – both aged in their 60s – confronted one of the men.
Following an altercation, the occupant sustained an injury to his arm before the unknown men fled the scene on the trailbike.
A woman inside the home – also aged in her 60s – was not injured.
Shortly after, a Mitsubishi Triton ute and the trailbike reportedly collided near Yeoman Street, Boggabilla.
A 20-year-old man – believed to be the trailbike's pillion passenger – was treated at the scene by QLD Ambulance. He was taken to Goondiwindi Hospital and was later flown to Princess Alexandra Hospital in Brisbane for further treatment. He has since been released from hospital.
The trailbike rider ran from the scene.
The driver of the Mitsubishi was not injured.
Crime scenes were established at both sites in Boggabilla, and police commenced an investigation into the incident, under Strike Force Canmore.
Police seized the Mitsubishi Triton ute from an address in Goondiwindi, and the Honda trailbike, for forensic examination.
