A teenager was reportedly crushed while playing in old war tunnels near a popular Sydney beach.
The victim, a 13-year-old man, suffered injuries to his legs and arm when a large iron gate fell on him while he was playing in the old war tunnels near Malabar, in the south-east of the city.
Malabar Battery was a coastal defense station built on the Malabar Promontory in 1943 during World War II.
