Brodie Kostecki revealed on Seven’s Sunrise this morning that an incident had occurred, leaving a crew member hospitalised.
“One of our crew members was unfortunately attacked last night. It’s really disappointing and really put a spoil on the evening,” he said.
“We wish Sam all the best and hopefully he recovers fast, along with his partner.”
Local police have confirmed they are investigating.
The incident is said to have occurred outside The Oxford Hotel, where many Erebus staff members were celebrating their dominant Bathurst victory.
An update provided to Speedcafe by NSW Police on Monday afternoon confirmed authorities are continuing to investigate.
“Officers from Chifley Police District have commenced an investigation regarding the alleged assault of a 20-year-old man at Bathurst earlier today,” a NSW Police statement read.
“About 4.15am on Monday 14 October 2024, police received reports of a man being allegedly assaulted by three other men on William Street at Bathurst.
“As investigations continue, anyone who witnessed the incident is asked to call Bathurst Police or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.”
Erebus has offered a substantial reward for any information that can help police bring the alleged attackers to justice.
