Everest: Climbers Steck and Moro in fight with Sherpas
World
Police in Nepal are investigating an alleged fight between two famous European climbers and their Nepalese mountain guides on Mount Everest.
Switzerland's Ueli Steck and Simone Moro from Italy were nearing Camp Three at 7,470m (24,500ft) when the incident occurred.
The fight allegedly broke out after the pair ignored orders to hold their climb while the Sherpas were rigging ropes.
The guides reportedly attacked the pair after they returned to their tents.
Following the incident, the climbers packed "bare essentials" and made their way back down to Mount Everest base camp, "feeling that this was the safest place to be", said Mr Moro, an experienced Everest climber.
