Emergency services have rescued a teenager who became trapped in an old mineshaft in a state park north-east of Melbourne after apparently dropping his phone.
He was discovered by a passer-by in Tills Road near the Warrandyte State Park's Black Flat area just before 5:00pm.
Police said it is believed the 13-year-old lost his phone and went in to retrieve it.
"He was checked over by paramedics at the scene but was not injured," a Victoria Police spokeswoman said.
"He managed to retrieve his phone."
Nine CFA vehicles were at the scene at the Warrandyte State Park's Black Flat area.
