It’s episode four of Hunted Australia 2023 and even though they tried every trick in the book, a hot lead saw the ground Hunters capture a duo, ending their lengthy game of cat and mouse.
Here are the highlights!
Ben and Callum manage a quick escape
After using an ATM, Hunted HQ receive a lead on gamer duo Ben and Callum. While the CCTV footage sees an older man making the transaction, the investigators become suspicious, believing that one of the boys’ dads may be involved.
Hunted Team Delta race to Callum’s dad’s house, which happened to be where the Fugitives were headed. As they approached, Ben and Callum spot the Ground Hunters in full interrogation mode and they manage a quick escape.
Jordan celebrates his son’s birthday on the run
Tharren and Jordan, who have been continuing to rely on strangers for help, are still nowhere to be found. Hunted HQ decide it was time to question Jordan’s pregnant wife, Alyse, who tells them that it was their son’s second birthday the following day.
Convinced Jordan wouldn’t miss out on the big day, Hunted Team Charlie makes contact; however, pre-empting their suspicions, Jordan decides it’s not worth being captured, and celebrates the birthday on the run.
Glenn and Taylah’s capture
Having narrowly avoided capture three times, Glenn and Taylah become the target for the Hunters.
CCTV footage reveals them leaving a boxing gym in friend Marcos’ car, which leads two Ground Hunter teams to his address. Glenn and Taylah try to continue their evasive strategy, swapping vehicles and leaving their backpacks at their friend’s home for him to transfer to a new vehicle. Seeking refuge at Marco’s neighbour’s place, Team Alpha arrive on their ally’s doorstep.
Taylah and Glenn are concerned over their friend’s absence, so Craig’s wife offers them a getaway; however, an intercepted phone call leads the Hunters directly to them.
After a high-stakes chase, Boxer Taylah is caught first, and, then shortly after, Coach Glenn.
Gamer duo Ben and Callum are conned
Since their near miss at Callum’s dad’s home, Ben and Callum had been laying low at a local campsite. Given they were now exhausted, hungry, and paranoid, they head into the nearest town.
Fortunately for them, a kind stranger offers them a place to stay for the night, with the duo jumping at the opportunity. However, all was not as it seemed as the kind stranger soon snuck away to make a call to his sister, Kellie, who just happened to be on Hunted Team Delta.
14 fugitives remain on the run as Hunted continues Monday night at 7.30pm on 10 and 10 Play.
