Good Samaritan dies after youth attack in Sunshine
Published 1 week, 2 days ago
Description
A 60-year-old Good Samaritan in Sunshine is not expected to survive after being allegedly attacked by a group of five youths, including a 12-year-old boy, when he came to the aid of a shopkeeper being robbed. Four of the youths have been denied bail at the Children's Court, with a magistrate stating the victim's death is inevitable and charges of affray and intentionally causing serious injury will be upgraded. The case has reignited debate over bail laws, with the Premier conceding it should be subject to the government's 'adult time for violent crime' direction.
