We begin in Melbourne, where traffic on the Bolte Bridge is still disrupted after a dangerous graffiti stunt. Police are negotiating with a man seen dangling from the pylon after spray‑painting a “Pam the Bird” tag. Turning to global affairs, China is under fire for testing a nuclear‑capable missile. The launch came just hours after Australia and Fiji signed a major defence alliance. Back to sport, FIFA has rejected Belgium’s red‑card appeal. The ruling means a key USA player will take the field today after President Trump intervened. Switching to Sydney, fed‑up residents are demanding more CCTV to crack down on hoons. Locals say dangerous behaviour on their streets is getting worse. And finally, two Gold Coast jet skiers have rescued a humpback whale tangled in rope. Their quick actions freed the distressed animal closing the bulletin on a remarkable rescue. | *Subscribe and 🔔: http://9Soci.al/KM6e50GjSK9* *Get more breaking news at 9News.com.au: http://9Soci.al/iyCO50GjSK6* F
