    Healthy Escapees From Aussie Quarantine Camp are Apprehended

    Northern Territory police say they don't believe three teenagers who allegedly absconded from Darwin's Howard Springs COVID-19 quarantine facility this morning came into contact with members of the community.

    Key points:
    Police say three teenagers aged 15, 16 and 17 scaled a fence to escape the facility

    The trio were arrested on the outskirts of Palmerston this morning

    Authorities say the risk posed to the community was "very low"

    At a COVID update press conference, NT Chief Minister Michael Gunner confirmed the teenagers, aged 15, 16 and 17, tested negative for the virus yesterday.

    He said all three were from the Binjari community near Katherine and had been sent into quarantine as close contacts of positive cases.

    NT Police Commissioner Jamie Chalker said officers found the trio on the edge of Palmerston and arrested them after a chase on foot.
