Two of the five occupants died at the scene, while three injured occupants were eventually freed from the vehicle. Two of them are very seriously ill at the Alfred Hospital. The third is in a serious condition at the Royal Melbourne Hospital.
The Navy members were trainees undergoing Marine Technical training at HMAS Cerberus.
