Community halts government plan; school staff charged with sex offence; cannabis bunker | 7NEWS
The South Australian government has halted plans to acquire the Mount Barker restaurant Wok the Duck for a new $61 million school site after community backlash. Premier Peter Malinauskas is personally reviewing why this location was chosen from 16 possible sites. This follows a campaign where hundreds signed a petition to save the popular eatery. The opposition demands that the government release documents explaining the decision process.
A 30-year-old staff member at a private girls’ school in Plimpton has been charged with one count of sexual abuse of a child. Dong Yun, known as Dominic, appeared in court for the first time over the alleged offence that occurred earlier this year. It is unknown whether the alleged victim is a student at the Year 12 school where Yun worked.
Police uncovered an underground drug bunker while searching a Penfield Gardens property. The cellar contained 26 cannabis plants. A 38-year-old Hewitt man was arrested at the scene and faces multiple drug charges, while a 38-year-old woman was arrested for similar offences.
