Bloody hell, They were Sisters.

"Her 17-year-old sister was arrested and taken to Belmont Police Station shortly after the incident.

A crime scene was established and local detectives spent the night investigating.

The teenage girl has since been charged with murder and refused bail to appear at a children's court today."

Not good news..

A caravan manufacturing company has collapsed with debts of more than $1 million.

On Tuesday, Victorian-based Highline Caravans Pty Ltd went into voluntary liquidation.

The Melbourne company designed and built custom caravans for customers.

Highline Caravans has been a registered business for 11 years, since 2013, and offered 13 different models to customers including an electric vehicle.

Altan Djenab, from insolvency firm Wild Apricot, is the appointed liquidator. He has been contacted for comment.

Documents he submitted to the corporate regulator, ASIC, shows that the business has left behind some hefty debts in the wake of its demise.
