Howard Springs: Australia police arrest quarantine escapees
Australian police have arrested three people who broke out of a Covid quarantine compound in the middle of the night.
The Howard Springs centre near Darwin in the Northern Territory is one of Australia's main quarantine facilities for people returning to the country.
Police said the trio scaled a fence to break out of the facility.
Officers found them after a manhunt on Wednesday. All had tested negative to Covid the day before.
Officials did not state whether the escapees were returning travellers or locals in quarantine...

There are interviews on YouTube of people who have been locked up at Howard Springs. They were "traced" and sent there, not travellers.
Sounds like a leper colony. Really dignified!
