Multiple people have been injured following an incident in Newcastle on Saturday morning after hundreds of fans have amassed to witness the Knights team bus heading to Sydney.
A source from John Hunter Hospital in the Hunter region has confirmed a mass casualty event involving at least one child who is understood to have suffered serious injuries.
It is believed a vehicle has struck a group of people after losing control, with many emergency services, including helicopters, moving to the area.
The Newcastle fans were lined up on the side of Newcastle Link Road in anticipation of the Knights' Grand Final appearance tomorrow.
More to come.
