Episode Details

ACT police are sounding the alarm over a surge in dangerous behavior by repeat young offenders, including a 14-year-old charged for leading cops on a stolen car chase just days after another high-speed pursuit ended with a police vehicle hit. Meanwhile, two men on bail were arrested for tailgating an ambulance with its lights on, driving through red lights and bike lanes in a stolen car. The Australian Federal Police Association is demanding tougher bail laws and mandatory minimum sentences for anyone targeting emergency workers, arguing these repeat offenders can’t be trusted and pose a serious threat to public safety. The ACT government is set to review bail reforms, with a report due in August.
