Dashcam vision has captured the heart-stopping moment an out-of-control truck careered through an Adelaide roundabout, sending concrete rubble flying from its load as it took out power lines and parked cars.

9News spoke exclusively to the truck driver who said he did everything in his power to stop the collision after his brakes failed. 

The truck went through the roundabout in Hazelwood Park yesterday evening, causing extensive damage to vehicles and infrastructure, but remarkably no one was injured.

The incident occurred at approximately 6pm on Greenhill Road, known for heavy traffic during peak hours.

Truck driver James Watson said a brake failure was the cause of the incident. 

"I'm trying everything in my power. I'm trying to pull the handbrake, I'm trying to shift gears in the truck, I'm smashing on the brakes with my foot. And I just realised that there was f—ing literally nothing I could do," said Watson. 

He said he tried to avoid a group of parked cars.

"I didn't want to go through 'em, I just hooked the truck to the left and tried to come back in," he said.

Local barber Musa Sharifi narrowly avoided serious injury. 

"The second I got in the car, that truck right here lost control and all the rocks smashed onto the car. Now it's f—ed," said Sharifi, whose car was totalled in the incident.

Sharifi added, "If I was standing outside for another 10 seconds, I would've been dead."

Watson was unharmed, but left in shock. 

"I'm trying to process it, you know what I mean? It's a bit hard to look back and watch it," he said.

Local business owner Karen Stewart said she could not believe that no one was injured.

Watson went on to buy a lottery ticket after his scare.

A father-of-three is being remembered as a larger than life character after he died when his boat smashed into a moored yacht in Sydney.

Emergency services rushed to the Parramatta River at Hunters Hill last night when a 900-horsepower vessel crashed into the yacht.

CCTV captured the moment of impact, with the force pushing the yacht forward.

Shane Florio, 46, and his female passenger, 25, were injured and swam to shore.

Paramedics rushed the pair to the Royal North Shore Hospital. 

Florio died from his critical injuries and the woman was later released. 

Tonight, Florio's heartbroken family told 9News he lived his life to the fullest, adding that he ran a successful demolition business and loved his children.

NSW Police acting Inspector Ryan Spong said the situation was "devastating" for his family.

"These things, when they happen, they have devastating impacts for families, devastating impacts for first responders who have to go deliver these messages to these families, and sometimes, life-long injuries for people," he said.

The boat, valued at more than $500,000, is now with water police at Balmain.

Spong said there was "extensive damage" to the boat.

"The impact was so severe that it actually immediately sunk the vessel that was on the mooring too," he said.

"So you know that indicates the collision was quite intense."

Police are trying to work out whether speed or alcohol were factors in the crash.

9News understands they have yet to speak with the woman on board.

An expert can't determine how a young woman died because her body was crushed in a garbage truck six weeks after she was allegedly murdered, a court has heard.

Marat Ganiev, 53, is accused of killing Isla Bell on October 7, 2024, three days after the 19-year-old was last seen leaving her Brunswick home in Melbourne's north.

Her remains were found at a rubbish tip in the city's southeast on November 19.

Ganiev faced Melbourne Magistrates Court via video link today, listening through an interpreter for the start of his committal hearing.

Eyal Yaffe, 58, who allegedly helped him dispose of Bell's body, also fronted court charged with assisting an offender.

Ganiev is accused of murdering Bell before 2am on October 7, with CCTV allegedly showing him striking the teen in the kitchen of his St Kilda East apartment.

Prosecutors allege he spent two days cleaning his home before Yaffe came over towing a trailer carrying a black fridge.

The pair was allegedly seen removing a different fridge wrapped in plastic onto the back of the trailer on October 17.

Yaffe is accused of driving the fridge to a Caulfield South address, while police say Ganiev then moved the appliance multiple times over the course of two weeks.

Ganiev allegedly left the fridge concealed behind other items in a removalist van on October 30, with another resident locating the appliance on November 18.

The man found a bag inside after smelling a foul odour and threw it in the bin, believing it was a dead animal.

Bell's remains were discovered in the Dandenong rubbish facility the next day after her disappearance sparked an emotional missing-person appeal from her family.

Forensic pathologist Hans de Boer told the court today he performed Bell's autopsy but was unable to determine her cause of death due to the advanced state of decomposition.

There was evidence of injuries including lacerations and fractures, but the expert said he could not ascertain if they occurred shortly before death at the time of death or later on.

When defence barrister Ian Hill KC asked if all of the injuries could have been caused by the compactor in the rubbish truck, Dr de Boer replied: "Absolutely, yes".

Forensic anthropologist Samantha Rowbotham, who also analysed Bell's remains, told the court the injuries happened at or near the point of death, but she could not be more specific about timing.

She said she had not been informed Bell's body was compacted in the rubbish truck before the remains were discovered.

Toxicology reports showed the presence of prescription medication and illicit drugs including MDMA in Bell's system at the time of her death, the court heard.

The committal hearing will continue tomorrow.

Victoria's Director of Public Prosecutions will appeal mushroom killer Erin Patterson's sentence on the grounds it is "manifestly inadequate".

The Office Of Public Prosecutions Victoria today revealed it had filed an appeal against Patterson's sentence handed down last month.

Patterson was handed three life sentences for the murders of Heather Wilkinson, Don Patterson and Gail Patterson, and 25 years for the attempted murder of Ian Wilkinson, with a 33-year non-parole period.

"We confirm that a DPP appeal has been filed on the basis that the sentence handed down to Erin Patterson is manifestly inadequate," a spokesperson said.

Patterson is also expected to appeal her convictions.

The 51-year-old's appeal period was due to expire at 11.59pm today, but during the hearing last Thursday, Justice Christopher Beale cited a new court practice note directing applications for appeal extensions of 28 days or fewer to be granted automatically.

Patterson's defence had not given any indication of an intention to appeal during her sentencing last month.

To appeal her sentence or convictions, Patterson's defence team need to provide specific grounds for the appeal, such as errors of law, an unreasonable verdict, or a miscarriage of justice.

If the appeal grounds are valid, Patterson's case would be heard by judges in the Court of Appeal.

These judges have the ability to overturn sentences or convictions if they find grounds to.

If an appeal against a sentence is allowed, the Court of Appeal could reduce or increase the sentence.

If the Court of Appeal decides there was no legal error, the appeal will be dismissed and the original sentence will stand.

A breakdown of Patterson's prison sentence

Patterson was last month sentenced to life in prison with a non-parole period of 33 years, meaning she will remain behind bars for at least that long.

Assuming it is not successfully appealed, Patterson's sentence, which includes the 676 days she served in pre-sentence detention, would see her eligible for release on parole in 2056 at the age of 81.

Beale sentenced Patterson to four separate sentences, all to be served concurrently:

• For the attempted murder of Ian Wilkinson, Patterson was sentenced to 25 years in prison.
• For the murder of Heather Wilkinson, she was sentenced to life in prison.
• For the murder of Don Patterson, life in prison.
• For the murder of Gail Patterson, life in prison.
