Martin rescue: Teenage male flown to Royal Perth Hospital after fall at Old Barrington Quarry hiking spot

A teenage boy has been flown to Royal Perth Hospital by helicopter after he fell at the Old Barrington Quarry.

Multiple fire trucks, two ambulances, and the RAC rescue chopper were rushed to Old Barrington Quarry in Martin around 1:50pm on Tuesday following a triple-000 call.

A St John spokeswoman said a teenage male had suffered injuries as a result of a fall at the tourist hotspot.

Witness Emil Tomsberg said the 16-year-old plummeted 10 metres when he went too close to the edge of a cliff and lost his footing.

“He was grabbing for branches, and he didn’t get it fully. Then he started sliding with his feet, sliding further down, and then losing control,” he told 9NEWS.

“He had really bad marks on his hip, and we think he might have damaged his spine or neck. Definitely has a broken left arm.”

The teenager was winched into the rescue helicopter before being taken to RPH around 3.30pm. He is in a serious but stable condition.

The area is popular for hiking and is near the iconic Sixty Foot Falls within the Ellis Brook Valley Reserve.

It comes less than a day after an eight-year-old boy was winched to safety by the rescue chopper after he fell several metres at Lesmurdie Falls.

Firefighters conducted a tricky vertical rescue, winching the boy to safety from the bottom of the rocky waterfall.

Dramatic images captured by the 7NEWS chopper showed several firefighters on the rocky terrain as the young child was loaded onto a stretcher before the helicopter lifted him out.

A Perth Children’s Hospital spokeswoman said on Tuesday that the eight-year-old was in stable condition.
