Youth Detention Centre Still Empty

There is no word yet when youth moved to Thunder Bay will return to the native youth detention in Fort Frances.

The centre's six youth were sent to the city's facility following a June 3rd altercation between some of the youth detained at the Ge-Da-Gi-Binez Youth Centre and two staff members.

A spokesperson with the Ministry of Children and Youth Services says ministry and centre staff are still reviewing the incident and discussing a possible return of the youth.

But Anne Smith could not say when that would happen.
