1. Thuggies run wild:

ACT Policing is seeking witnesses to a serious assault on a 20-year-old man which occurred in Wanniassa early on Sunday morning (May 30).

It is believed the assault occurred between 1am and 2.30am in the vicinity of the Erindale McDonalds car park where two males were attacked by a group of unknown male offenders.

During the incident, four offenders have exited a small white vehicle and assaulted the two male victims as they walked through the area.

The 20-year-old victim sustained a number of head and facial injuries during the attack while a 27-year-old male received minor bruising.

Two of the male offenders have been described with having shaved heads.

Police are also seeking witnesses regarding the investigation of two further incidents which occurred during the evening hours of Sunday (May 30).

About 9:40pm, a 23-year-old man was assaulted and robbed by three males in Cowdery Place, Monash. The victim had his wallet stolen from him and suffered multiple head and facial injuries during the incident.

And what about all the ones going on in Civic on the same night???? I know of three other incidents from early Sunday morning.

Witnessess have reported that the small white vehicle had a dis-proportionately large roof rack. The roof rack wasn’t just a couple bars but rather more like a box frame.
