Lifesaver 23's official twitter account said the helicopter was "back in the air assisting nswpolice (sic) who are searching for a person who has evaded them after a police pursuit in the Batemans Bay area".
A NSW Police spokesperson told the Bay Post/Moruya Examiner there was a motor-vehicle accident, and they are currently searching for the driver.
Meanwhile, an eyewitness reported long queues and delays are being experienced on the Princes Highway just south of the Batemans Bay industrial area.
The witness said highway-patrol vehicles and a tow truck are at the scene. A white vehicle is on the tow truck, and road-workers are directing traffic.
More details as they come to hand.
