Essendon cafe firebombed; Sam Neill dies; elderly couple found
Screen legend Sam Neill has died unexpectedly at age 78 in a Sydney hospital, just weeks after announcing he was cancer-free following a four-year battle with a rare blood cancer. The Jurassic Park star, born in New Zealand, became one of the most versatile actors of his generation over five decades, working with directors like Steven Spielberg and actors including Meryl Streep. His death has prompted tributes from political leaders in both Australia and New Zealand, with his final film The Fox set for release in October.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
