A man had to be flown to hospital after he was hurt falling from a horse during a hunt near Rerewhakaaitu about 1.30pm this afternoon.
A Rotorua ambulance was initially called to help the 66-year-old Tauranga man, but due to the location the Rotorua-based BayTrust Rescue Helicopter was despatched.
He was flown to Rotorua Hospital in a comfortable condition with chest injuries.
