Trampoline didn’t bounce

PARAMEDICS treated two people after a car crash in Narre Warren on Tuesday night.
Advanced life support paramedics from Hampton Park and Pakenham and intensive care paramedics from Hampton Park were called to the corner of the Monash Freeway and the Princes Freeway at 8.10pm.
Advanced life support paramedic Jamie Watkinson said they arrived within nine minutes to find two cars and a truck damaged.
“It appeared a trampoline being transported on the roof of a car flew off and hit the windscreen of a car behind,” he said.
“That car was then hit in the rear by a semi-trailer.”
A 29-year-old man suffered swelling and a cut to his forehead and eye, and chest pain.
He was taken to Dandenong Hospital in a stable condition.
A 22-year-old woman from the same car was also taken to Dandenong Hospital in a stable condition with minor injuries.
The truck driver escaped injury.
