Bottles or drinks glasses have been used to slash bar patrons, party goers or security staff in at least five violent outbursts in and around Perth this weekend.

SUBIACO GLASSING

This morning, police spokesman Samuel Dinnison said that officers were investigating a reported glassing at the Flawless night spot in Subiaco.

Mr Dinnison said that just before 11:00pm an argument broke out between two groups of people.

The tension escalated and a man was struck to the head with a glass or bottle.

A fight then erupted between the groups and a glass was thrown at a wall and smashed, showering onlookers with shards.

Both groups were ejected from the club.

The victim was taken to hospital for treatment to several minor cuts.

FREMANTLE BOUNCERS ATTACKED

Also last night, several bouncers were allegedly assaulted at Fremantle’s Sail and Anchor Hotel.

A group of patrons was allegedly stoushing in the bar area when a bouncer stepped to them.

Mr Dinnison said the bouncer was allegedly struck to the head with a glass or bottle.

A second bouncer tried to help her colleague and she was allegedly knocked to the ground.

Police also allege that several people punched and kicked her and that two other security guards were assaulted as the group left.

Police arrested several people and investigations are continuing.

The male bouncer was taken to nearby Fremantle Hospital with minor injuries.

Police are seeking information about the condition of the female bouncer.

COODANUP PARTY VIOLENCE

In a third suburban flareup, police were called to a disturbance at the community centre in the Mandurah suburb of Coodanup.

About midnight, up to 20 people were reported to be fighting with bottles.

On arrival at the centre, police found two people had received serious injuries.

A 28-year-old man received a cut to the head after being struck with a bottle.

He also received facial injuries after being attacked by a group of people, and was taken to hospital for treatment.

A 23-year-old man was also taken to hospital with facial injuries and suspected broken ribs.

LYNWOOD RUCKUS

About 12:15am police attended the Lynwood Community Centre in Perth’s east after hearing that a mob of 50 people was fighting and bottles were being smashed in the car park.

By the time police arrived, the ruckus had finished and a group of people had returned to the centre.

About 12:50pm another call was received about 20 people blueing in a nearby street.

One person was taken to hospital with a cut to his head.

Last night’s violence follows the slashing of a 19-year-old in the neck at Joondalup’s Sovereign Arms Tavern on Friday night. The faux English pub was shut down for half an hour while police established order.

Anyone with relevant information about any of the attacks should call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
