MOB RULE

[Kwality]

Tensions in a Queensland city over youth crime have boiled over, with police forced to intervene after a mob of fed-up vigilantes attempted to storm the home of an alleged youth offender.
More than 100 people rocked up to Central Park in North Rockhampton on Sunday afternoon following impassioned calls from a local figure to end the local crime wave.

The chaotic scenes were first sparked after former One Nation candidate and Muay Thai gym owner Torin O’Brien shared a post to social media offering $5000 for details on an alleged local robbery.


Mr O’Brien led the charge, explaining to the gathered crowd and local media that he had largely stayed quiet about the local crime problem until recently.

Shocking video shows protesters chasing after the residents. Picture: Nine
“Where were you guys when my sister and her baby woke up with three of these … in her bedroom,” he said in the video.

A Queensland police spokesman said they “appreciate community assistance in reporting” local crime.

Crime seems to be a major issue in parts of queensland

a mate's 13yo daughter was abducted recently, which has not made the media as yet (under police instruction). according to police this is not a rare event. if it isn't rare, perhaps we should be doing something about it?

otherwise we will have hill billy justice

Hopefully the police silence is soundly based - if it were VicPol, I would have no confidence.

In the area there has been a number of 13 and 14 yo girls go missing for about two weeks before released. I can only assume the police have a reason not to release details, based on this trend.

Regardless of the outcome ahead, I think it is reasonable to suggest there will be a lot to deal with for the family.

oh and the fact that the police can only wait, despite the number of victims over the years suggests that the police have very few leads.

If they had evidence of genuine abductions it would be headline news.

Ie. They're not 'abductions'.

Either way its concerning.

Past abductions have been reported in the media

Just not the current abduction

I’m not sure I’d want to give an unhinged criminal a rifle

But yes re national service

A woman with baby waking up to be confronted by 3 intruders is plain terrible. Sounds to me the problem may be race related. The risk is that gun protection may be used killing someone who has trespassed. Police need to get in charge.........,..............preferably without death in custody
