Emergency crews were called to the area to treat two patients at 4.35pm, an ambulance spokeswoman told the AAP on Friday.

There are two, what looks like two bodies on the ground and we are just being told to move away and bit and give the police some room down there.

Yahoo!7 helicopter pilot Andrew Millett said he could see two bodies on the ground which were covered up by sheets. He noted that the bodies were approximately 100m away from police headquarters. Mr Millett added that quite a few streets in the area were blocked off to motorists. A man told Sydney radio station 2GB his father had seen a man “dressed in black” lying on the pavement.
