Teen Girl Injured After Falling From Moving Bus at Seaforth’s Spit Bridge

A teenage girl was injured Monday evening after reportedly falling from a moving bus near the Spit Bridge in Seaforth, Sydney.

Emergency crews were called to the area shortly before 5:45 p.m. on September 28, 2026, following reports that a passenger had fallen from a northbound bus during the evening commute.

NSW Police and NSW Ambulance attended the scene, where paramedics treated the injured teenager.

Passenger Falls From Bus

The incident happened as the bus was travelling northbound near the Spit Bridge.

Early witness accounts indicated that the girl fell from the vehicle while it was negotiating a bend. A witness who spoke with the Manly Observer described passengers reacting after apparently seeing the teenager fall.

One early account suggested that the bus doors may have opened while the vehicle was moving. However, that claim has not been confirmed by authorities and should not be treated as the established cause of the incident.

The circumstances leading to the fall remain unclear.

Teenager Treated by Paramedics

NSW Ambulance paramedics assessed the teenager after arriving at the scene.

Initial reports said she had suffered multiple grazes and a hip injury. She was reported to be in stable condition.

There was no indication in the available report that the teenager had died.

It was not immediately clear whether she was taken to a hospital for further treatment.

The girl’s name and exact age have not been released.

Traffic Affected During Emergency Response

The incident also caused disruption for motorists travelling through the area.

One northbound lane was closed while emergency crews dealt with the situation, with drivers approaching the Spit Bridge warned to expect delays.

The lane closure formed part of the emergency response as police and paramedics worked at the scene.

Authorities Investigating

The exact reason the teenager fell from the bus has not been established.

Authorities had not confirmed whether the incident involved the vehicle’s doors, a mechanical problem, passenger movement or another circumstance.

Further information from NSW Police or transport authorities could clarify what happened as inquiries continue.
