A man has died and another 10 people have been seriously injured after a violent brawl in Brisbane's north overnight involving knives and baseball bats.
Police said a fight broke out between two groups at O'Callaghan Park in Zillmere at about 5:30pm yesterday. A man, believed to be about 20-years-old, died at the scene, while 10 others were taken to the Royal Brisbane and Women's Hospital."We believe knives and baseball bats were used in that attack," he said.
"We know at least one young man has died and there are about 10 other people who have been hospitalised as a result of that incident."I'm concerned this incident is the result of a retribution amongst these people for an incident that happened earlier this week in the western suburbs of Brisbane.""What we would ask is for the community to remain calm," he said.
"We are doing all we can to investigate this and hold people to account for the level of violence that happened.Posted
