A man has been arrested in regional WA after flying into Perth from New South Wales and ignoring a police direction to isolate until he could be placed on a return flight back.
Kyle Stephens, 32, arrived at Perth Airport on July 1 — while Perth was in lockdown — and was refused entry due to current border controls which ban travellers from New South Wales in response to a COVID-19 outbreak in Sydney.
