Chaos erupted at a multicultural rugby league event in Melbourne on Friday night when masked thugs roamed through the crowd, one brandishing a machete.
The terrifying scenes unfolded at Seabrook Reserve in Broadmeadows at about 9pm during NRL Victoria’s Harmony Cup, which involves teams from 17 different cultural and ethnic groups, mainly from the Pacific Islands.
Multiple videos recorded at the event showed the black-clad thugs, one in a hood and the other in a balaclava, ran through the event, and both appeared to have olive or brown complexions.
A woman’s voice could be heard screaming “hey, he’s got a knife” while frightened families and children watched on.
“A lot of people were scared, everyone was running around, all the little kids were trying to find their mums and dads,” a witness told 7News.
