Logan Queensland party brawl

Overview

On 26 July 2026, a house party at a short‑term rental on Orchard Avenue in the Bahrs Scrub suburb of Logan, Queensland, erupted into a violent brawl between two groups of youths. Police arrived around 2:15 am to find extensive property damage to a nearby home and several vehicles. A 21‑year‑old man from Redbank Plains, Jongkuch Peter Kur Jongkuch Achieu, sustained severe head injuries and was taken to Princess Alexandra Hospital. He died on 1 August after life support was withdrawn.

Detective Inspector Ian Galpin described the incident as a “targeted attack” and stated there was “no ongoing threat to the wider community.” Booking.com, which listed the property, announced it would investigate the incident with its trust and safety team.

Following a large‑scale homicide investigation involving over 80 officers and 14 simultaneous search warrants, several arrests were made. On 6 August, four teenagers (two 18‑year‑olds and two 19‑year‑olds) were arrested and charged with murder. On 9 August, four additional males, aged 17 and 18, were arrested in Morayfield and charged with murder. Police allege the group arrived with a “preconceived plan” to inflict harm using various weapons.

In total, eight teenagers have been charged with murder in connection with the death. A 22‑year‑old was also charged with contravening an electronic information order. The investigation, which includes the Queensland Police Organised Crime Gangs Group, is ongoing, and authorities have indicated further arrests may be possible. The suspects are scheduled to appear in the Brisbane and Richlands Magistrates Courts.
