Two children remain in hospital after an “incident” at a Victorian youth detention centre in which a prison guard’s keys were allegedly stolen and three staff members were allegedly held hostage.
Victoria’s attorney general, Jaclyn Symes, has said there will be “consequences” over Tuesday’s incident at the Malmsbury youth justice centre in central Victoria. The incident came after the state government announced in June it would close the centre by the end of the year.
