ACT police are investigating the death of a 13-year-old after an incident in which fire crews reportedly did not enter the teenager's home due to the presence of other COVID-positive people inside.
The "distressing incident" occurred on the morning of Friday, August 5, when paramedics called for assistance in tending to the "seriously ill young person" who suffered a cardiac arrest.
It is unclear whether the teenager suffered cardiac arrest at the property or in an ambulance on the way to the hospital.
