Police concerned wedding of Rebels club member could be disrupted by rival gangs


15:02 |

POLICE are concerned the wedding of a high-ranking Rebels club member in Brisbane today could be disrupted by rival clubs in an escalating southeast Queensland bikies war. The reception, at the RNA Showgrounds, has emerged on the radar after a series of cross-club skirmishes, including a botched drive-by attack on the Gypsy Jokers clubhouse at Everton Hills on Thursday night. In a misguided effort to target the clubhouse, gunmen driving a silver Commodore with no registration plates sprayed eight bullets into the wrong industrial unit. Earlier on Thursday came the latest reprisals in a Bandidos-Hells Angels feud triggered by arson and drive-by shootings at Bandido-linked businesses in Brisbane and the Gold Coast. On Thursday, Norman Park tattoo parlour Platinum Ink and East Brisbane locksmith Millennium Locks, both linked to the Hells Angels, were invaded in daylight by five men in balaclavas and wielding baseball bats. The Hells Angels have not lodged a complaint and the victims of the bashings, including those with broken arms, have been of little assistance to police. The gang responsible for the attack is unknown but police sources have not ruled out the Rebels, who dominate Brisbane's northside, the Woolloongabba-based Bandidos or the Surfers Paradise-based Finks. The new attacks have been linked to the encroachment of new-school Hells Angels in Queensland.
