Man arrested over alleged domestic violence incident, woman airlifted from fire

Emergency services were called to a home on Bribbaree Road at Bribbaree shortly after 12pm on Sunday following reports of a fire.

A spokesperson for NSW RFS said emergency services remained on the scene, where one person was being treated by paramedics, into the afternoon.

"The house was fully involved by fire and we have two trucks on scene," the spokesperson said.

Upon arrival officers attached to The Hume Police District found a 65-year-old woman at the home who was suffering from severe burns.

She was treated at the scene before being airlifted to Royal North Shore Hospital in a critical condition.

Police later issued an appeal for assistance from the public as they began investigating what they believed to be a domestic violence-related assault.

At the time, he was believed to be travelling in a twin-cab Hilux and heading towards Young. Members of the public were urged not to approach the man or vehicle but if sighted to call Triple Zero.

The 42-year-old man was arrested at the police station in Parkes - 140km north of Bribbaree - some time later, police advised around 5.30pm.

A teenager - believed to be the daughter of the woman - also sustained minor burns, the NSW Ambulane spokesperson said. She was taken to Young Health Service for further treatment.

Investigations are ongoing.
