"Tear gas and burning cars." Alice Springs erupted in violence after the arrest of Jefferson Lewis for the murder of 5-year-old Kumanjayi Little Baby. Here is the full report. On May 1, 2026, hundreds of protesters clashed with Northern Territory police outside Alice Springs Hospital. The unrest followed the discovery of a missing five-year-old girl's body and the arrest of 47-year-old Jefferson Lewis. After being beaten by locals, Lewis was hospitalized, leading to a siege where police cars were torched and medical staff were threatened.
