  "account": "Early this morning, a suspected arson attack destroyed four cars at the Yatala Labour Prison carpark in Adelaide's north. The Public Service Association (PSA) representing prison staff expressed outrage over the incident, calling for improved security measures. The union had previously urged the department to erect a fence around the car park five months ago, but their request was rejected. Two Mitsubishi station wagons and two Toyota sedans were completely destroyed in the early morning incident. Police are treating the case as suspicious and have described it as a possible arson attack. All options are being considered by the Department for Correctional Services as they investigate the matter. CCTV footage of the incident is available, but details are being withheld for now. The PSA has met with prison management this morning, and its president warned that the incident highlights serious security concerns at the site.",
