Brisbane

Remarkable video shows a driver's wild rampage from Brisbane to the Gold Coast.

A number of vehicles were smashed including an ambulance, with the accused live streaming himself hooning through South Bank.

The story said he dumped the ute and his dogs before stealing a truck... Anyone know if the puppies are ok? 😬

Seems to be the intersection between Gympie Rd and Rode Rd, facing south.

Bit of an update to an earlier article --> https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-21/qld-daisy-hill-hit-and-run-appeal/104123370

A woman charged over the alleged hit-and-run murder of a young mother south of Brisbane has been remanded in custody after a brief court hearing.

Police allege 23-year-old Kiesha Thompson was deliberately struck by an SUV just before 9am on Friday in the Logan suburb of Daisy Hill, south of Brisbane.

The alleged driver — 24-year-old Larissa Rita Mae-Leigh Sant — has been charged with one count of murder.

Police said the women were known to each other but their relationship was unclear.

A teenager has admitted to being behind the wheel of a speeding stolen car and causing a crash which killed three people on the Fraser Coast last year.

The boy, who cannot be named, was due to appear in person in the Childrens Court of Queensland on Tuesday morning, but he refused to travel to Brisbane from the detention centre.

Instead, he appeared via video link, and Judge Deborah Richards told him the defiant behaviour was "a pretty stupid thing to do".

Seems a bit of an understatement...
