Tragic Accident on Inca Trail: Australian Police Officer Dies in Peru An Australian tourist, a fifty-three-year-old police officer from Victoria, has lost his life while hiking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in Peru. He fell from an embankment, estimated to be as much as four hundred metres, in a remote section near Intipunku entrance. Authorities suspect a damaged security barrier may have contributed to the fall. The officer was traveling with his wife and was known for his dedication to police training. His body has been taken to Aguas Calientes, and arrangements are being made to transport it to Cusco. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
