Police are looking for two males aged 18 and 20 that escaped from a minimum security work party at approximately 1:50 pm today.

The group was doing community work at the Water Gardens in Jingili when they left the designated work group.

They are both described to be of aboriginal appearance between 174 - 180 cm's tall, slim build, short dark hair and at the time were wearing green t-shirts, dark blue shorts and work boots.

"Whilst the men escaped from a minimum security work party, we have a number of resources dedicated to this task and are urging members of the public to contact police on 131 444 immediately if they are sighted" he said.
