An Australian tourist has died after falling while walking the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu in Peru.
Local police say 53-year-old Matthew Cameron Payton, who has been identified as a Victorian police officer, died on the trail whilst hiking with a tour group on Wednesday afternoon local time when he reportedly tripped and fell through a damaged security barrier.
Mr Payton had been travelling in the region with his wife before beginning the four-day trek.
He was later reported missing before his body was found.
Police believe the Victorian officer fell up to 400 metres with authorities now working to transport his body to the city of Cusco.
Australian fast food chain Guzman & Gomez is shutting down its US businesses after struggling to grow in America's competitive Mexican food market.
The company told shareholders the performance of its US stores had not been strong enough to justify further investment, despite ambitions to become one of the world's biggest restaurant brands.
GYG currently operates eight stores in the Chicago area, with the closure expected to cost the company up to US$40 million in one-off expenses.
Shares, though, in the company jumped just after the announcement.
New Zealand's Finance Minister Nicola Willis has taken a cheeky swipe at Australia's latest budget changes, inviting unhappy investors to consider moving across the Tasman.
Speaking to Sky News, Willis pitched New Zealand as a pro-growth alternative.
highlighting its simple tax system, no capital gains tax and business-friendly rules.
She says Australians looking to start or grow a business could find an epic opportunity in New Zealand, pointing to lower red tape and easier tax settings.
The comments come after Australia's changes to capital gains tax, which from 2027 will see investors lose access to the long-standing discount on properties held for more than a year.
And Stephen Colbert has opened his final episode of his late night show in a more relaxed mood than usual, leaning on his desk as he addressed the studio audience.
The late night host reflected on his 11 years on the program, saying it had been a joy for him and everyone who had worked on it.
The final episode aired as an era of late night TV comes to a close after the network confirmed earlier this year that the long-running show would end following 33 seasons.
That feeling of freedom.
