Invercargill

A dairy farm worker has died after being trapped underwater by his quad bike near Invercargill overnight.

A man walking along an Invercargill street was attacked by another man in a passing van early on Sunday morning, police say.

Registrations are open for the National Wetland Restoration Symposium in Invercargill in March.

Firefighters used the jaws of life to free a woman who was trapped for about 20 minutes in a late-model car which went on fire after an accident involving a truck near Invercargill last night.
