<\/p>\nA 17-year-old boy who was described by his parents as \u201cout of control\u201d has been released on bail after allegedly hitting and killing a woman in an Edgewater park while riding an e-motorbike.<\/p>\n
The teen, who cannot be named because of his age, made a bid for freedom again on Tuesday after spending a week locked up at Banksia Hill Detention Centre following his arrest over the death of a 59-year-old nurse on July 26.<\/p>\n

Police allege he was riding an off-road electric motorbike that was unregistered and \u201ctravelling erratically\u201d when the crash happened at about 2.30pm near Edgewater Drive.<\/p>\n
The woman, a nurse who was originally from New Zealand, was taken to Joondalup Health Campus where she later died.<\/p>\n
The teenager was charged with manslaughter, no authority to drive, using an unlicensed vehicle on a road, reckless driving escaping pursuit by police and failing to comply with a direction to stop.<\/p>\n
The boy, whom the court previously heard had been diagnosed with ADHD and autism spectrum disorder, lives between his father\u2019s house, predominantly, and his mother and teenage brother\u2019s house in Toodyay.<\/p>\n
The court was previously told police had been called multiple times to his home after his behaviour turned violent, but the boy had never been convicted of a crime.<\/p>\n
His parents told the court on his last appearance that they had \u201cabsolutely no control over his behaviour\u201d. His bail application was adjourned for reports to be provided to the court outlining his suitability for release.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday, that report was brought before Perth Children\u2019s Court Magistrate Alana Padmanabham who agreed he could be released into his parents\u2019 care under a strict 7pm to 7am curfew and that he must present to police when they visit his home for relevant checks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A 17-year-old boy who was described by his parents as \u201cout of control\u201d has been released on bail…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":46091,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[43,44,41,39,42,40],"class_list":["post-46090","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-headlines","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topnews","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46090","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=46090"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/46090\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/46091"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=46090"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=46090"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=46090"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
