A crime scene was declared and a 58-year-old driver was arrested with charges pending, with NSW police working to identify the families of the wedding guests. ‘The number of family members, [and the] broader community, who will be impacted by this, you couldn’t count,’ the acting police commissioner Tracy Chapman said. Police were called to Wine Country Drive near Greta just after 11.30pm following reports that a coach had rolled, with media outlets reporting that guests had been at the Wandin Estate Winery in Lovedale before the crash
