A man had to be winched out by rescue helicopters after a skidder rolled on a forestry site near Hampden about noon yesterday.
Fire and Emergency New Zealand spokesman Daryl Ball said 111 was called after a skidder - a heavy vehicle used in forestry for pulling out logs - rolled down a bank.
The crash happened near Duncan Rd inland from Hampden, he said.
St John spokesman Gerard Campbell said a rescue helicopter and ambulance were dispatched from Dunedin at 12.30pm.
The helicopter arrived at Dunedin Hospital at 2.23pm carrying a 65-year-old man with moderate injuries, he said.
A police spokeswoman said the man had a shoulder injury.
