Three Teens Charged Over Chair-Hurling Brawl at Sydney’s Broadway Shopping Centre

Police say the clash is tied to GlebeWaterloo youth tensions, with further arrests expected.

Overview

  • NSW Police say a group confronted a boy in the Broadway food court just before 6pm Tuesday and hurled chairs, with one falling to a lower level.
  • No injuries were officially reported, though video appears to show a woman on an escalator being struck by a thrown stool.
  • Following inquiries, officers arrested a 16-year-old and two 15-year-olds, charging all with affray and one 15-year-old with breaching bail.
  • All three were refused bail and are due in court today as detectives continue to seek additional footage and witnesses.
  • Chief Inspector Grant Watson said investigators know those involved and are reviewing security procedures with the centre, which resumed normal trading.
