CHANNEL 10 newsreader Natarsha Belling was treated at hospital and is now on crutches after falling down 12 stairs while doing the grocery shopping.

The 48-year-old tripped and fell while rushing down an escalator on Monday.

“I was sober,” Belling told Confidential.

“I thought I’d broken my back and I have cuts all down my leg, it looks like a shark has attacked me. I am very lucky and I am okay.”

“I literally had a 15 minute window to zip in and get some bits and pieces,” she explained.

“I was rushing around and I had heels on and missed the first step and fell down the whole lot of them.”

Belling, who did not want to reveal details of where she was shopping, was taken to hospital where she received treatment.

“They bandaged me up and I’m on crutches now,” she said.
