Some dickhead kids kill someone to presumably steal her car, then dump it all of a suburb later, and are guaranteed to get caught thanks to the security camera footage that records them getting out of the car.

At least 6 lives directly ruined (the woman dead, the women's grand daughter witnessing it, and the 4 dickheads involved), countless friends and families lives affected from the loss, and an entire community who will 100% feel backlash from this.

Just such a stupid amount of waste for nothing.

"Police have arrested a 15-year-old Ripley boy as part of their investigation into the stabbing death of a 70-year-old woman in an Ipswich shopping centre over the weekend.

Police said the boy attended Ipswich Police Station about 9:30pm on Sunday night.

He was charged with one count of unlawful use of a motor vehicle in relation to an alleged stolen car."

I read the original article on the weekend and I was in total disbelief.

Now knowing a 15 year old was involved has me even more shocked. Literally throwing away the life of an innocent person, traumatising a small child and for what? A car they ditched an hour later? Showing off to their mates?

This whole situation is so fucked up. I really hope the murderer gets put away for a really long time, even if they are a minor. No excuse for what they have done.

Looks like 2 more have been arrested and they know the identity of the fourth.

Further Queensland arrests related to stabbing of woman in IpswichPolice in Queensland have arrested two further juveniles related to the “callous, cowardly, violent” fatal stabbing of a 70-year-old woman in Ipswich.

Authorities investigating had arrested a 15-year-old boy overnight, charging him with unlawful use of a motor vehicle.

Detective acting Superintendent Heath McQueen said police had since identified two further persons of interest – both of who are “juveniles”– who are now in custody. Police also know the identity of a fourth person of interest, who they hope to have in custody later today.

McQueen said the motive for the attack – which occurred in front of the woman’s 6-year-old granddaughter – was to steal her car.

McQueen said:”The motive was to steal a Hyundai Getz. I stand before you today talking about the murder of a grandmother in front of her 6-year-old [grand]daughter and the result was stolen Hyundai Getz. This is senseless violence. It doesn’t matter to me where these people go, we will find them.”

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Police have arrested a 15-year-old Ripley boy as part of their investigation into the stabbing death of a 70-year-old woman in an Ipswich shopping centre over the weekend.

He was charged with one count of unlawful use of a motor vehicle in relation to an alleged stolen car.

Vyleen White was stabbed in the chest during a violent robbery, in front of her six-year-old granddaughter, at Redbank Plains Shopping Centre in Ipswich on Saturday.

Detective Acting Superintendent Heath McQueen said Ms White had been grocery shopping and was near her car when the random attack took place.

"We will not stop, and I'm going to assure you that, we will continue to investigate this around the clock until we find out who has committed this offence," Acting Superintendent McQueen said on Saturday night.

Three other people seen in CCTV vision in relation to the stabbing remain outstanding.
