Sam Wood appeals bail refusal; Logan vigil held for Vana-Reese Schuster-Togiatau
Sam Wood's lawyers appeal his failed bail bid, Logan holds a vigil for a pub shooting victim, and a Queensland health provider cuts services and jobs.
Sam Wood's lawyers have appealed the refusal of his latest bail application and are pushing for an urgent hearing in the Court of Appeal, according to the Nine News Brisbane bulletin of Monday 2 November.
The bulletin, presented by Melissa Downes and Joel Dry, described the development as another dramatic turn in Wood's attempt to win his freedom. The source material does not say what charges he faces, why bail was refused or when the appeal might be heard.
In Logan, the community came together for a candlelight vigil to honour Vana-Reese Schuster-Togiatau. She was killed in a drive-by shooting at a local pub. The vigil was described as emotional. The source gives no further detail about the circumstances of the shooting, the investigation or any charges.
The bulletin also reported that a major Queensland healthcare provider is cutting services, a move that will make hundreds of workers redundant only weeks before Christmas. The source does not name the provider or specify which services will be affected.
This article is based on a headline summary of the bulletin rather than a full transcript, so further detail on each story is not available here.
