Gang brawl averted in Burden Park

Police have disrupted a planned fight between more than 100 rival gang members at Burden Park Springvale.

The two groups each of more than 50 people descended on the park about 5.30pm on Friday 11 October.

One group was predominantly of Asian backgrounds, the other Islander, police say.

Some of the members pushed and shoved but no brawl occurred.

The groups dispersed when police arrived.

Police believe the brawl was organised over a dispute about a female.
