Yea home invasion and fire may have been a case of mistaken identity, police reveal
Police believed three offenders who seriously injured a man and burnt down his home during an aggravated burglary north of Melbourne may have targeted the wrong victim. Investigators appealed for information from the public as they continued to investigate the incident on the Melba Highway at Yea on Monday, June 23. The 68-year-old victim told police the three offenders arrived at his rural property about 1:15am, armed with guns and a machete. He said they demanded money and firearms, blindfolded and assaulted him, and dragged him from his house into the boot of his car. The man said the vehicle was driven part way down his driveway before he was forced out of the boot and into a paddock where he was again assaulted and had petrol poured over him before his house was set alight. Police said three firearms used for farming were stolen from the property. The man told police he did not know his attackers, with investigators believing they may have gone to the wrong address. The victim has described the men as being of Middle Eastern appearance and said he believed they spoke Arabic during the incident. Detective Sergeant Flyn Loughlin said there had been an anonymous report to Crime Stoppers that gave some details about the incident. He said detectives were urging the caller to make further contact with police to provide additional information. "We need assistance from the public to help us identify the three offenders." Anyone who witnessed the incident, has CCTV or dashcam footage or information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or

Pheobe Bishop's family and friends to say goodbye in private funeral service
A private funeral service for 17-year-old Pheobe Bishop, who was allegedly murdered by her housemates, will be held in Bundaberg today. In a statement, Pheobe's mother Kylie Johnson told the ABC the family was "devastated this is something we have had to navigate". "This is absolutely everybody's worst nightmare, however, we promised to get Phee home and give her a send-off that Phee would approve of and that's what will happen," Ms Johnson said. Pheobe's case captured the attention of the nation after she disappeared on the way to Bundaberg Airport on May 15, 350 kilometres north of Brisbane. An extensive five-day search of dense bushland more than an hour from Bundaberg began eight days after she disappeared. Her remains were found 9 kilometres from the original search site 10 days later. Police allege Pheobe's body was moved multiple times. James Wood, 34, and Tanika Bromley, 33, have been charged with her murder and will appear in court on August 11. Ms Johnson said two "amazing women in Phee's life" would conduct the private service for the teen's loved ones, who have been asked to don brightly coloured clothing. Ms Johnson has described her daughter as "free-spirited" and said she loved hugs, dancing and singing. "I would tell people to hug their kids a little tighter, tell them you love them multiple times a day, watch that silly movie, dance to the song and capture every moment in your memories," she said. Hundreds of people attended public memorials for Pheobe in Bundaberg and her hometown of Gin Gin.

Erin Patterson trial: Jurors expected to be sent out to deliberate verdict in mushroom murder case
Jurors in the triple-murder trial of Erin Patterson are poised to be sent out to deliberate their verdict on Monday after the judge finishes delivering his final remarks. On Friday, Justice Christopher Beale told jurors he expected to complete his summing up of the evidence, arguments and legal principles by midday on Monday. Then, he said, the 14-person panel of Victorians would be reduced to 12 with a random ballot before jurors are asked to retire and begin deliberations. 'I'll be completing the charge prior to lunchtime on Monday, at which point we'll have the ballot and away you go so to speak,' he said. At the start of the trial 10 weeks ago, jurors were told they would be sequestered for the duration of their deliberations. Ms Patterson, 50, is facing trial after pleading not guilty to murdering three of her husband Simon Patterson's family members and the attempted murder of a fourth. Simon's parents, Don and Gail Patterson, and Gail's sister, Heather Wilkinson, died in early August, 2023, from multiple organ failure linked to death cap mushroom poisoning. The case centres around a lunch Ms Patterson hosted on July 29, 2023, at her home in Leongatha, in Victoria's southeast, where the accused woman served beef wellingtons containing death cap mushrooms. Prosecutors allege Ms Patterson deliberately sought out and included the deadly fungi intending to kill or at least seriously injure her four guests. Her defence argues the case is a tragic accident, Ms Patterson also fell ill and she did not want to harm anyone. The case is expected to resume in the town of Morwell at 10.30am on Monday.
