A South Australian councillor is under fire after video footage of her shouting profanities at a council meeting surfaced.

In the video footage obtained by 9News, Salisbury councillor Severina Burner, can be heard telling another council member to "F— off" as he tries to call the meeting to order.

"Make it clear what exactly we're voting on and don't make us look like idiots, make it clear so I don't look like an idiot," she can be heard saying before unleashing the profanity.

Burner then abruptly leaves the online meeting.

The meeting took place weeks ago, but the footage is only now coming to light.

The outburst angered Mayor Gillian Aldridge, who said the behaviour was unacceptable.

"Disappointing, it's just not how councillors should behave, it's just not acceptable," she said.

9News reached out to Burner, but she declined to comment. 

Many ratepayers were also unimpressed, as was Blair Boyer, a member of the South Australian House Assembly.

"Severina has turned into a bit of a sideshow and she's bringing it into disrepute the entire council," Boyer said.

"I'm a ratepayer of Salisbury council and the stuff that Severina Burner is putting out there are not the things everyday ratepayers care about.

"You're taking away from the things people elected you to do."

An Adelaide father-of-five and veteran died hiking the Kokoda Track with his son for charity.

Paul Miller and his son Aaron travelled to Papua New Guinea to hike the track with "a small group of veterans and first responders" to raise money for Operation K9.

His wife Amanda Kaplan said the "passionate advocate for veterans" is believed to have suffered a heart attack on Sunday, the second day of the 96-kilometre trek, after covering 18.5 km.

"Despite all efforts of assistance and of CPR, Paul was airlifted out and it has been confirmed that he had passed away on arrival at the hospital," Kaplin said.

She thanked those who tried to revive the veteran and escorted their son back to Australia.

"In true Dusty style, he went out with a bang – doing something that he has always wanted to do… Kokoda," she said.

"We would love this opportunity to spread the awareness and fundraising efforts that Paul was aspiring to achieve.

"Please remember our veterans during Anzac Day, Paul was a proud and extremely well-respected member of the veteran community."

Miller was described as a "dearly loved" partner, father, uncle, son, brother, mate, veteran and sports fan.

He joined the Australian Defence Force as a 16-year-old vehicle mechanic apprentice in 1991 and was posted to Brisbane, Toowoomba, Townsville, Darwin and Adelaide before he was discharged in 2014.

During this time he was deployed to International Force East Timor, Iraq, Timor Leste and Afghanistan.

In total, he served for 24 years full-time and two years in the reserves.

After being medically discharged due to service-related mental health issues, he became an advocate for veterans.

The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade confirmed it was providing consular assistance to the family.

"We send our deepest condolences to the family," a spokesperson said yesterday.

The Kokoda Track Authority manages the trail where an estimated 625 Australians were killed fighting and more than 1600 were wounded in the bloody five-month campaign fought between Australian and Japanese soldiers in World War II.

It warns trekkers the trail is a "challenging experience both physically and emotionally".

A 33-year-old Cambridge man is before the courts on burglary and theft charges.

A man has been arrested over an alleged random, daylight attack on a couple in Melbourne CBD that left one with a broken eye socket.

Claude and Emma Bennett told 9News they thought they were going to die when they were unexpectedly set upon by a man and a woman near the Flinders Street Station underpass about 1pm on March 28.

Police arrested a 37-year-old man near foreshore in McRae, about 88km from the scene of the crime, over the attack this morning.

But they are still looking for a woman who was also allegedly involved in the attack.

Claude, 60, was allegedly thrown and pinned to the ground, then repeatedly punched and kicked in the face before his wife was targeted.

"He punched me in the face, grabbed me, shoved me, threw me… and everything else was a bit of a blur," Emma told 9News.

Detectives said the "atrocious" assault on the disability support workers, who were simply walking to lunch, was completely unprovoked.

"I can only describe it as vicious, violent and brutal," Detective Senior Sergeant Andrew Eyries said.

The National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) is facing a major reboot amid fears of a multi-billion dollar cost blowout and allegations of rorting.

The scheme's minister, Bill Shorten, has admitted the system had "lost its way" and vowed to completely overhaul it.

"When I talk about rebooting disability services that's what I talk about. Systemic reform," Shorten told the National Press Club in Canberra today.

The reform will lead to more care workers, longer care plans, more at-home care, and will target misuse of the scheme.

It will also see an increase in inclusion through education and infrastructure.

"The truth is most service providers are brilliant," Shorten said.

"The truth is most people with disabilities aren't looking for truffles and caviar," he added.

Opposition Leader Peter Dutton criticised the scheme today, placing the blame squarely on Shorten.

"Bill Shorten is the architect of the NDIS and if there are flaws in the NDIS, then Bill Shorten has to explain why he designed the scheme in such a way."

The overwhelming flaw of the NDIS may be the scheme's popularity – and therefore its cost.

This year it will cost the budget – due to be unveiled on May 9 amid warnings from Deloitte about a so-called "consumer recession" – more than Medicare or aged care.

But Shorten argued that "participants are valued clients, not human ATMs".

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese also weighed in on the importance of the overhaul today.

"What the NDIS does is enable people to fully participate in society and make a contribution to the economy," he said.

The chiefs of each of the armies are calling it a “significant step forward”.

A woman looking for a friend's house in upstate New York was shot to death after the car she was riding in mistakenly went to the wrong address and was met with gunfire in the driveway, authorities said on Monday.

Kaylin Gillis, 20, was travelling through the rural town of Hebron, four hours' north of New York City, with three other people on Saturday night when the group made a wrong turn onto the property.

They were trying to turn the car around when the homeowner, Kevin Monahan, 65, came out onto his porch and fired two shots, according to Washington County Sheriff Jeffrey Murphy.

One round hit Gillis.

The group drove to the neighbouring town of Salem, northeast of Albany near the Vermont state line, and called 911, said Murphy, who noted the shooting took place in an area with limited mobile service.

Emergency crews arrived and performed CPR on Gillis but couldn't save her.

When officers arrived at Monahan's house to investigate the shooting, he refused to come out, Murphy said.

Authorities spoke with him through a 911 dispatcher and in person for about an hour before he was taken into custody, according to the sheriff.

Monahan was booked into the Warren County jail on a charge of second-degree murder.

It wasn't clear whether he had an attorney who could speak on his behalf.

Murphy said at a news conference on Monday that Gillis, who lived in Schuylerville, “was an innocent young girl who was out with friends looking for another friend’s house,” according to the Times Union of Albany.

He said there was ”no reason for Mr Monahan to feel threatened.”

The shooting happened days after 16-year-old Ralph Yarl was shot and wounded in Kansas City, Missouri, after going to the wrong house to pick up his younger brothers.
