Breaking news...

Just seen on Ch 7, T3 is apparently closed after a gang entered and stabbed someone.

No doubt more details will emerge soon.


Turns out someone was not stabbed, but rather hit with a bollard. Ouch!

A brawl between about 20 men at Sydney Airport this afternoon has left one man seriously injured, police say.

The man is being treated at the scene after being hit with what is believed to be a portable bollard. Police say he will be taken to hospital by ambulance shortly. The bollard, among a number of other items, have been taken for forensic examination.

About 1.35pm, police were called to the domestic departure lounge at terminal three. A crime scene has been established there and police advise a number of check in gates have been affected. Travellers are advised to allow extra time to check in as delays are expected.

Police have canvassed the area and will review CCTV footage.

Sydney Airport said the matter was now with police so they were unable to make comment.
