GRN TG 10331

SMH "One man is dead, and two others remain trapped after a rockslide in the Blue Mountains on Wednesday.
At least one of the trapped men has serious injuries.
Emergency services responded to reports of people injured in the rock fall at Wentworth Falls about 11.45am.
Two men appear to have multiple fractures, an ambulance spokesman said.
The spokesman said it appeared the walking track had collapsed, and police were setting up a command post at the scene.
Police rescue teams were accessing the patients, but rescue efforts could be hampered by the weather - which looked like it was turning bad, he said.
Fifteen ambulance crews including three rescue helicopters were on their way to the scene.
One Fire and Rescue crew was also on the scene and two more were on their way, a Fire and Rescue NSW spokesman said."
