“A message to look out for our local youth and be more supportive has been shared following the tragic death of a 13-year-old boy in Port Lincoln Tuesday morning.
“At about 5.20am on May 11 three Port Lincoln boys aged 11, 12 and 13 were allegedly asleep in an industrial bin in a car park off Napoleon Street when a rubbish truck arrived to empty the bin on a scheduled pick up.
“As the bin was lifted the 12-year-old boy managed to escape and attempted to alert the driver, however the other two were tipped into the truck.
“The 11-year-old boy was relatively unhurt but unfortunately the 13-year-old boy suffered fatal injuries and died at the scene.”
