Teenagers detained at Queensland shopping centre for alleged coronavirus breachesQueensland police are questioning two teenage girls over COVID-19 breaches after they allegedly lied about travelling from a declared hotspot. Meanwhile in the leprosy state. Nothing is enforced, except borders and when some poor bloke is looking for dinner after 8pm. Meanwhile groups all together in park today again... but it’s Elwood so rules don’t really apply here, do they... I feel bad for all the kids in lockdown. If we didn't have so many stupid and selfish adults and such incompetent federal leadership, we could've been like NZ by now. Teacher's? leave the Kids Alone

Women arrested at Noosa shopping centre, accused of arriving from COVID-19 hotspotJUST IN: Two teenage girls accused of entering Queensland from a coronavirus hotspot have been arrested at a shopping centre. 9News You misspelled “children” 🙄 No faces shown, obviously - because they're white (unlike the two women from a few weeks back) Charges might not be laid.

Makes me wonder who they're connected to if they're receiving favourable treatment.
