AUSTRALIA - Hells Angels arrested over nightclub assault

OFF THE WIRE
Two Hells Angels members and a Hells Angels associate have been arrested in relation to an aggravated assault in the early hours of Friday morning at a licensed premises in Mitchell Street.
A man and a woman were allegedly assaulted during the incident on Darwin's nightclub strip.
Police allege the two Hells Angels members aged 35 and 24 years, and a 21-year-old associate were intimidating patrons before the assault.
As a result Drug and Organised Crime detectives conducted search warrants in Coconut Grove, Fannie Bay and Girraween Road and arrested the men.
Detectives also served the 35-year-old man with a 'Warrant of Seizure and Sale', seizing a Harley Davidson motorcycle, a Holden ute and two flat screen televisions.
The items were forfeited in order to recover monies owed by the offender to the NT Government.
Detective Senior Sergeant Mark Stringer says NT Police take a hard line against violent behaviour.
"Police will not tolerate acts of violence committed by outlaw motorcycle gangs or any other members of the community."
The men have been charged with aggravated assault and disorderly behaviour and were bailed to appear at the Darwin Magistrates Court at a later date.
