Two men have been taken to hospital with "serious injuries" after a brawl at a Queanbeyan business, New South Wales police say. About 1:10pm, Monaro Police District officers were called to the Crawford Street business to respond to reports of a brawl. When they arrived on the scene, they were told the two men, believed to be aged in their 20s, had already been taken to Queanbeyan Hospital. "Early indications suggest the injured men were stabbed," NSW Police said in a statement. "It is not known whether other weapons were involved." Detectives have established a crime scene and begun an investigation. NSW Police urged anyone with information to contact Queanbeyan Police Station or Crime Stoppers.

Truck driver dies after crash into Toowoomba retirement village

A truck driver has died after crashing into the side of a residential unit block on one of Toowoomba's busiest roads. Emergency services were alerted about 1:15pm Friday after receiving reports a truck travelling eastbound collided with a white SUV travelling in the opposite direction, before crashing into a residential unit block on James Street near Clifford Gardens Shopping Centre. Police said in a statement that the driver, a man in his 50s, died at the scene. A woman who was inside the unit at the time was treated for shock. Queensland Fire Department Superintendent Kent Barron said it was "early days" and police would investigate the circumstances of the crash. "There's been sustained damage to the corner of the unit and we will shore that building up and see what we can to do enable the residents to return," he said. Superintendent Barron said it had been a busy afternoon for emergency services in Toowoomba with numerous incidents across the city. Two other unrelated crashes were reported along Toowoomba's busy Anzac Avenue. One person suffered minor injures, and a car was left on its roof when two cars collided at the roundabout of Anzac Avenue, West Street, and Russell Street at about 1:15pm. At the same time, one person was taken to hospital in a stable condition when two cars collided at the intersection of Anzac Avenue and Alderley Street. "I guess it's a timely reminder for people to be really careful on our roads," Superintendent Barron said. "As a rescue service we are sick and tired of going to these types of incidents, we just ask people to be safe on the roads."
