Our Shipping Reporter , the only one north of the nuns' swimming pool, Coogee, Sydney , received this photograph from a Magnetic Island contact, who witnessed police, fire and ambulance vehicles, sirens blaring , roar up to a house at Picnic Bay . Did not rate a mention in the mainland media, which is not unusual , the island coverage so feeble . According to hearsay, a car caught fire and an onlooker had a heart attack . Medical evacuation choppers come and go on the island without reporters noticing. Island police news almost nil, better coverage for faraway Charters Towers and Woop Woop. .
