YEA, VIC. — A Yea man who filmed inside the shipping container where Dezi Freeman had been living before his death has been charged with trespass.
Police allege the Yea man entered the Thologolong property in Victoria’s north-east in April, about three weeks after Freeman was shot dead following a stand-off with police.
The 43-year-old Yea man later published footage filmed inside the shipping container and around the property online, saying he had accessed the site to retrieve a drone.
The Yea man was charged by Wodonga crime investigation unit detectives with one count of trespass in relation to an alleged incident at a property on Murray River Road in Thologolong on April 16.
The Yea man is due to appear at the Wodonga Magistrates’ Court in October.
