Police seach river in Melbourne after machete attack

Police divers yesterday resumed a trawl of Melbourne's Yarra River in a bid to find the body of a third victim of a deadly machete attack.

Viet Huynh, 25, jumped into the river early on Monday to escape a gang of up to 15 men armed with machetes, knives and possibly swords.

Two other members of the city's Vietnamese community died in the attack. The mutilated body of one was found on a riverside footpath and another body was pulled from the river.
