Bulldogs fans face off with police
October 5, 2004
BULLDOGS fans' rugby league grand final victory celebrations turned ugly overnight when some supporters confronted police in their arch-rivals' heartland.
Fans still celebrating their team's 16-13 win converged on Bondi - home of the defeated Sydney Roosters - about 10pm yesterday.
Police said today the trouble began when patrolling officers went to apprehend the driver of a blue Mazda 323 who was speeding and driving dangerously around streets in the area.
They said they chased the vehicle for a short distance along nearby Ramsgate Avenue before catching up with the car in Campbell Parade, where they arrested the 19-year-old driver.
A large group of people turned up and surrounded police, who were forced to call for urgent backup.
Eastern Suburbs Local Area Command and Operation Support Group police, as well as officers from neighbouring local area commands, responded.
A 19-year-old, from Hinchinbrook in Sydney's southwest, has been charged with speeding, driving while suspended and driving in a dangerous manner.
He is to appear in Waverley Local Court on October 27.
Sergeant Peter Bishop, the duty officer at Bondi Police Station, said many Bulldogs fans had been driving around the Bondi area over the weekend.
He said apart from last night's arrest, the only other major incident reported to police was a carload of Bulldogs fans kicking in the security door of a unit block on Campbell Parade.
Sgt Bishop said the fans kicked in the door after a resident inside the building yelled out at them to stop honking their horn and screaming out the car window.
"The guys who kicked the door in left before the police arrived."
