Two men from Sydney’s western suburbs have died after three fishermen were swept into the ocean at a popular fishing spot at Port Kembla on the NSW south coast. The two men – a 31-year-old from Lakemba and 38-year-old from Wiley Park – were unable to be revived after a wave knocked them into the water just before 7pm last night. Emergency crews rushed to the scene after a highway patrol officer noticed a fisherman struggling in the water roughly 100m off the rocks at Hill 60 just before 7pm last night. The officer and member of the public dived into the water with a flotation device in an attempt to save them, but it took local surf lifesaving crews to retrieve them from the water. One fisherman was winched from the water and despite CPR being performed, he died at the scene. The 38-year-old died later in hospital after being winched from the sea and taken to Wollongong Hospital in a critical condition. The third man, a 42-year-old from Wiley Park, was not injured.
