Colac homeowners fined
A party in Colac on August 29, just before a second COVID-19 outbreak occurred in the town, has come under police investigation, with two home owners fined $1652.
Officers did not attend the address during the gathering and became aware of the breaches after being alerted in following days, a Victoria Police spokesperson said.
The Department of Health and Human Services declined to confirm if the gathering, which a source told the Independent was a “swingers party”, was linked to the second outbreak in Colac earlier this month.
