Police were this morning searching vehicles and caravans at the main checkpoint at the Daintree River ferry — the only crossing point on the crocodile-infested waters. 11 people were on Sunday detained, some well-dressed, as they sat on an isolated beach near the crocodile-infested Daintree River, surrounded by Australian Border Force officials and police. A social media post by Danielle Fox is currently doing the rounds: While this post is still unconfirmed the internet is quickly getting behind Barry to congratulate him on his compassion.
